Premium Pick

Chicago has not hit a home run in five straight games despite playing them all at Wrigley Field. They now head West to Oakland, a huge park that is tough on hitters. Chicago has lost three of its last four road games as favorites of -185, -215 and -141 in the three defeats. The Cubs are on a 3-9 run on the road. Oakland comes off an 8-6 win in 10 innings at the Los Angeles Angels and now head home after a nine-game trip. The A's have won three straight at home and 7 of 10. The Athletics are also 27-9 at home following a road trip of seven or more days, plus 39-19 in interleague home games. Play Oakland.
