A's vs. Blue Jays lineups: Oakland tries to avoid laying egg on Easter

Share

The A's have only won one of four home games since returning from their nine-game road trip, and they'll try to avoid a sweep at the hands of the Toronto Blue Jays on Sunday.

Oakland might have the right man taking the mound in left-hander Brett Anderson (3-0, 2.62 ERA) to get the team back on the winning track, as he's arguably been the A's top starter in the early portion of the season.

The Blue Jays, meanwhile, will counter with right-hander Aaron Sanchez (2-1, 2.86), who is coming off a start in which he gave up four earned runs and two home runs in six innings.

This will be the first-ever Easter meeting between Oakland and Toronto. The A's have a 13-17 record on Easter since moving to Oakland in 1968, including a 10-12 record at the Coliseum.
