The Athletics return home tonight after a successful 4-2 road trip through Seattle and Arlington, Texas that put them in first place over the Rangers by 1.5 games. Tonight, they are back home at Sutter Health Park in West Sacramento to take on the Kansas City Royals, who currently sit in last place in the American League Central division with an 11-17 record.
Taking the mound for the A’s tonight is 30-year-old righty Aaron Civale. He is 2-1 with a 3.86 ERA in five starts. He’s struck out 21 in 25.1 innings so far in 2026. Civale will go up against 28-year-old lefty Kris Bubic for the Royals. After an injury-shortened 2025 season, Bubic is 2-1 with a 4.08 ERA this season. Bubic was selected to his first All-Star team last season before going down with a rotator cuff injury later in July.
Kris Bubic will face this lineup for the Athletics tonight:
