Oakland at Chicago

The Chicago Cubs playoff hopes for this season are closing fast, but they are not dead yet. The Cubs take a modest two game winning streak into this one where they have outscored the opponent 15-4. This includes a 9-2 series opening win vs. the Athetics yesterday. Oakland has really nothing left to play for as they have secured enough wins to avoid the dreaded 100-loss mark again. Oakland has not been good on the road this season, and have lost the last three of their current road trip. The Cubs have some reason still to show up, and just keep winning and see what happens. Make the play on the Chicago Cubs.
