Oakland at Texas

The Oakland A's are in a position to wrap-up a wildcard berth, but have bigger things on their minds as they can trim the Rangers’ lead to just three games with a win tonight. The A's got a big win here last night and send rookie sensation Jarrod Parker to the mound with his 11-8 mark and 3.40 ERA. The Rangers hand the ball to a rookie of their own in Martin Perez, but they have dropped the last eight games he has appeared in both as a starter and as a reliever. The A's have been a momentum-driven team, and are 41-19 in their last 60 games when following a win. They are a live dog now at 19-7 in their last 26 as a dog from +110 to +150. Play on Oakland in this one.
