A's vs. Rangers lineups: Sean Murphy catching Sean Manaea for first time

Share

Sean Manaea has pitched two games this season, both with the same battery mate. That will change Sunday for the A's left-hander. 

Rookie catcher Sean Murphy will be in the squat working with Manaea in Texas. 

The 24-year-old has been a star so far in the early part of his MLB career. Through eight games with the A's, Murphy is batting .409 with four homers and three doubles. 

Manaea has been just as impressive, too. The 27-year-old is 1-0 with a 0.75 ERA in two starts this year. 

Here are the full lineups for the A's-Rangers game, which will be broadcast on NBC Sports California and the MyTeams app. Coverage begins at 11:30 a.m. PT, with first pitch at 12:05 p.m. PT.
