Game Snapshot

• Matchup: Atlanta Braves vs Oakland Athletics
• Date & Time: July 10, 2025, 9:05 PM ET
• Starting Pitchers: Spencer Strider (3-7, 3.93 ERA) vs JP Sears (7-7, 4.76 ERA)
• Stadium: Sutter Health Park, Sacramento, CA
• Broadcast: NBCS-CA and FDSN South

Key Storylines

• Pitching form: Spencer Strider has struck out 63 batters over 55 innings. He is 3-7 with a 3.93 ERA and is hoping to round into form before the break. JP Sears has allowed 18 homers in 92.2 innings. He will need to be near his best to have a chance to outperform Strider in this contest.
• Bullpen usage: The Braves have a major edge in bullpen ERA going into this contest. But they did allow 10 runs to the A’s in the opening game of this series. Atlanta has to avoid a similar showing to lock things down in this game.
• Recent team streaks: The Braves dropped five in a row before their win over the A’s on Wednesday night. Oakland has dropped three of their last four games.

Final Thoughts

Atlanta has the edge on the mound in this game thanks to Spencer Strider. I expect them to take a lead in the first five innings of this game. From there, the superior bullpen of the Braves should help them get across the finish line. Look for the Braves to win this game and cover the runline before they get out of Sacramento.
