Outfielder Brent Rooker has been one of the few bright spots for the lowly Oakland Athletics, who are one loss away from recording the worst April in major league history.
The Athletics will look to avoid the record-setting defeat when they continue their three-game series against the visiting Cincinnati Reds on Saturday. Oakland has 22 defeats this month, matching unwanted mark set by the 1988 Baltimore Orioles.
The A's were unable to keep pace with the Reds in the series opener. Jake Fraley belted a two-run homer and Nick Senzel drove in three runs as the Reds won their season-high fourth straight. Luis Cessa pitched five-plus innings for his first victory of the season. The Reds will send right-hander Hunter Greene to the mound on Saturday. He turned in another strong outing last Sunday, allowing one run on four hits over six innings in a 2-0 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Left-hander Kyle Muller is expected to get the start for the Athletics. He has given up 16 runs across 13 innings in his past three starts.
