Cubs host Athletics in upcoming MLB series at Wrigley Field

The Chicago Cubs are set to host the Oakland Athletics for a series at Wrigley Field starting this week. The Athletics are currently struggling, having lost seven of their last nine games and sitting three games below.500. Pitching woes have been a significant issue for Oakland, highlighted by recent injuries and poor performance from key pitchers. Despite this, catcher Shea Langeliers is having a notable season, leading the team in batting average and home runs. The series could be crucial for both teams as they navigate the early summer of the MLB season.
