1st June 1883
After the quick start the team had in April they came back to normality in May to frustrate their fans. The team picked up only 11 wins during the month while losing 15. This has seen the team pegged back to be in joint 1st place in the AL table.
The team started by splitting the final 2 games of the road trip to the Cleveland Blues 1-1. They then won the next 2 series 2-1 on the road to the Chicago White Sox and at home to the Louisville Eclipse. The teams form then collapsed as they went 1-2 on the road to the Boston Americans and 1-2 at home to the Baltimore Orioles before being swept 0-3 on the road to the Washington Nationals. They were then again swept 0-3 by the Detroit Wolverines at home. The form finally picked up for the final 2 series as they went 2-1 on the road to the Cleveland Blues and 2-1 on the road to the Chicago White Sox.
The player who kept their form the best during the month was Right Fielder Chicken Wolf. Wolf managed to pick up 34 hits from 112 at bats in 24 games. This led to him scoring 15 runs and 12 RBI's for an average of .304.
The Athletics squad managed to provide only 2 AL All Stars this year. They were Centre Fielder Paul Hines and Right Fielder Chicken Wolf.
Both Hines and Wolf started for the AL in their 8-5 win.
