Result:
LOSS

Talented Texas has a winning road record while Oakland is terrible at home (33-47). Texas had only Elvis Andrus and Nomar Mazara among the regular starters in the lineup on Saturday and still managed a 5-0 win, its second straight shutout. The Rangers are 26-9 after allowing two runs or less in their previous game. Texas is fifth in baseball in runs scored, #12 in on-base percentage, and fifth in slugging. Starter Colby Lewis (6-3, 3.40 ERA) has been consistent all year with the team 7-3 his last 10 starts. The Rangers are 25-10 when their opponent scores two runs or less in their previous game, and they face a bad Oakland offense who is #27 in runs scored, #28 in on-base percentage, and #27 in slugging. The Athletics are 3-13 at home against a team with a winning record, plus 17-35 versus the AL West. The Rangers have won five straight in this park and make it six in a row. Play Texas.
