The Athletics vs Los Angels Angels - 5 Innings Total - Athletics TT o1.5 - 2025-09-05 for Today, 09/05/25

The Athletics face Jose Soriano, a hard-throwing righty who has shown flashes of dominance for the Angels but also occasional vulnerability early in games. Soriano owns a solid 3.68 ERA, but his inning splits tell the story — he has been sharp through the first three, yet his ERA spikes to 7.67 in the fourth and 4.05 in the fifth, both within the first 5 frames. That’s an opening for a lineup that has quietly been one of the better AL offenses since July, averaging just over five runs per game during that stretch. With Shea Langeliers (29 HR, .838 OPS), Brent Rooker (.839 OPS, 27 HR) and Tyler Soderstrom (23 HR, 81 RBI) anchoring the middle of the order, there are multiple power bats capable of capitalizing if Soriano leaves something elevated. Add in Jacob Wilson’s .315 average at the top and this group has the table setters and run producers to push across a couple of early runs.
