Athletics vs Chicago White Sox Starting Lineup — Sunday, Jul 12, 2026
Final Lineups
Athletics @ Chicago White Sox · Sunday, Jul 12, 2026
Jacob Wilson and Shea Langeliers are the only Oakland hitters with any MLB history against Noah Schultz, and both are hitless. Wilson is 0-for-2 in 2 PA with a .000 OPS, while Langeliers is also 0-for-2 in 2 PA with a .000 OPS. Joshua Kuroda-Grauer, Jonah Heim, Colby Thomas, Joey Meneses, Lawrence Butler, Henry Bolte, and Alika Williams have no MLB history vs Schultz, so this is largely an unfamiliar matchup for the Athletics.
Andrew Benintendi owns the most notable history for Chicago against J.T. Ginn, going 1-for-2 in 2 PA with a .500 average and 1.000 OPS. Tristan Peters has also seen Ginn, but he is 0-for-1 in 1 PA with a .000 OPS. Sam Antonacci, Munetaka Murakami, Miguel Vargas, Colson Montgomery, Kyle Teel, Braden Montgomery, and Chase Meidroth have no MLB history vs Ginn, leaving Benintendi as the lone home hitter with any positive track record.
Chicago has slightly more useful familiarity, if only because Benintendi has a hit off Ginn. Oakland’s limited history against Schultz has produced no hits so far, and most of that lineup is seeing him for the first time.
