The Angels claimed victory in the series opener against the Athletics on Monday, winning 7-4, thanks to an impressive performance from Yusei Kikuchi, who delivered eight innings of one-hit baseball without allowing a run.

Kikuchi was dominant, issuing just one walk and striking out five, marking his finest outing of 2025. Meanwhile, Mike Trout showcased his classic skills, leading the offense with two RBIs.

The Angels are favored once again on Tuesday, as the Athletics find themselves 11 ½ games behind in the division standings. Jose Soriano (4-5, 4.11 ERA) will aim to deliver a solid performance against a struggling A’s team, going up against Mitch Spence (4-1, 2.09 ERA).

The total for this matchup has seen movement since the lines opened, now sitting at nine, which presents an interesting opportunity.

Although Spence isn’t known for his strikeouts, he has proven to be a durable player.

He manages contact well, consistently pitching into the sixth inning in his last six starts and allowing two or fewer runs in half of those appearances.

On the other hand, Soriano excels at inducing groundballs at a rate of 58% while keeping home runs to a minimal 0.64 per nine innings. In his last encounter with the A’s, he limited them to just four hits over four innings.

With both bullpens posing some concerns, there is enough uncertainty in the offenses to project the total runs to remain under nine in this matchup.

Take the under in this one.
