The Athletics bring a 0-3 record into Monday’s game against the Atlanta Braves at Truist Park, with first pitch scheduled for 4:15 p.m. PDT. Despite losing each of their first three games, Oakland has gotten a historic power display from catcher Shea Langeliers, who has homered in every game so far this season.

Langeliers, who hit three home runs in the opening series, will try to keep the streak alive against Braves right-hander Bryce Elder (0-0). The Athletics counter with Aaron Civale (0-0), who makes his season debut. BetMGM Sportsbook lists the Braves as -143 favorites, with an over/under of 9 runs.

The Braves, who went 76-86 last season, enter with a 2-1 record after taking two of three from the Padres. Atlanta slugged .399 with a .720 OPS in 2025. The Athletics matched that 76-86 mark but went 40-41 on the road, averaging 8.7 hits per game and hitting 219 home runs.

Both teams have notable injury lists. For Atlanta, key absences include Ha-Seong Kim (finger), Sean Murphy (hip), Spencer Strider (oblique), and Spencer Schwellenbach (elbow). Oakland is relatively healthy, with only pitcher Gunnar Hoglund (knee) on the injured list.

The Athletics are in their final season before relocating to Las Vegas, where they are scheduled to begin play in 2028 at a new ballpark on the Strip.
