<h2>Athletics @ Mariners &#8211; First Pitch: 9:40 p.m.</h2>
</div>
<div>Expected Forecast: Few Clouds, 62°</div>

<div> </div>
<div>The <strong>Oakland Athletics</strong> are set to face off against the <strong>Seattle Mariners</strong>. <strong>Ken Waldichuk</strong>, the left-handed pitcher for the Athletics, is expected to take the mound against the Mariners&#8217; <strong>Bryce</strong> <strong>Miller</strong>. Oakland is up against a steep price point, with the Mariners standing as a heavy <strong>-303</strong> favorite.</p>
<p>Looking at Miller&#8217;s performance over the past 30 days, his K percentage stands at <strong>25%,</strong> and he&#8217;s been average overall. However, his splits are impressive, with a weighted on-base percentage of <strong>.159</strong> against <strong>lefties</strong> and <strong>.128</strong> against <strong>righties</strong>, coupled with an <strong>ISO</strong> of <strong>.061</strong> and <strong>.038,</strong> respectively. This could spell trouble for the Athletics&#8217; run-scoring potential.</p>
<p>On the flip side, although the Mariners&#8217; profile doesn&#8217;t necessarily align well against left-handed pitching, they are facing the A&#8217;s and Waldichuk, which gives them a strong edge. And while the Mariners aren&#8217;t necessarily an elite baseball team, their status as huge favorites speaks volumes about the current state of the Athletics.</p>
<p>Seattle&#8217;s lineup, featuring power hitters like <strong>Jarred Kelenic</strong>, <strong>Eugenio Suárez</strong>, and<strong> Cal Raleigh</strong>, could prove to be a tough challenge for Waldichuk. These players have shown elevated ISO power numbers and could be the driving force for the Mariners&#8217; offense.</p>
<p>All in all, this game promises to deliver plenty of late-night action. Despite the odds, don&#8217;t count out the potential for runs &#8211; this match-up could very well prove to be a <strong>high-scoring affair</strong>. Take a look at the <strong>over</strong> for <strong>Seattle&#8217;s team total</strong> for the <strong>game</strong> and <strong>first five innings</strong>.</p>
