Using Avios on AA domestic flights

I am trying to use Avios for a domestic AA flight.

The routing is EWR-SLC via CLT in F.

On the AA site it shows it would cost 25,000 AA miles but on the BA site it shows it would be 58,000 Avios points.

Can someone explain the reason for such a significant difference? I though 1 Avios is equivalent to 1 AA mile. For example, when booking a 1 way transatlantic J seat Avios would be 50,000 point and AA miles would be the same.

Why then the significant difference on the domestic flight?
