Athletics look to even series against Orioles in contest tonight

The Oakland Athletics host the Baltimore Orioles for the second game of their series on August 30, 2026. After a 4-3 loss in 10 innings in the series opener, the Athletics seek to avoid falling behind 2-0. Right-hander Jack Perkins is set to start for the Athletics, aiming to bounce back from recent struggles against Orioles right-hander Shane Baz, who has been performing better recently. Oakland hopes for early offense to support Perkins and establish a lead, while Baltimore aims to capitalize on any opportunities presented during the game.
