It was an up-and-down week in Oakland A’s baseball, but one thing always remains constant: great Twitter content. Scroll to check out the week that was in the A’s Twitterverse!
More of this, please!

The kind of analytic content we know you’re here for.
By my count, that is the #Athletics second Matt Trick of the season (the other was April 6). They've also gone Double Matt five more times (thrice missing Chapman, once missing Olson, once missing Joyce).

If anyone has a bigger A’s bobblehead collection, let us know in the comments.

Speaks for itself.
In his last four games, #Athletics first baseman @mattolson21 has four home runs and nine RBI.

And one of them was the longest in the AL so far this year.
We have liftoff! @Athletics slugger @mattolson21 crushed this 112.7 mph solo shot 475 feet -- the longest HR hit in Oakland since #statcast began tracking in 2015. pic.twitter.com/ghFKk7vWF7

Yeah, they go different directions. Because he's a witch. That's why. pic.twitter.com/eevS3na3Xu
Matt Chapman probably has never played “in” in his life.
Always love when A’s play infield in and the guy with one of the strongest arms in the game gets to ignore the strategy. pic.twitter.com/7T6KOb9aQJ

And the no no-hit streak lives on.

TBH, if I don’t feel this at least once a series, something is off.
