The Athletics are coming into this game as an underdog with the current betting odds. They have not been playing well in their recent games as they come into this game on a losing streak but this is a good spot for them to bounce back in. They are going up against a Mariners team that has also not been playing well in their recent games and the first game of this series was a very close one as the Mariners only won by 1 run. Blackburn is starting for the Athletics here and he has been great all season as he leads his team's starters in ERA and the team has only lost 1 game this season with him starting. The Mariners have Ray starting on the mound here and he has been struggling this season. This is a great spot for the A's to bounce back and get a win here. The best bet here is on the Athletics to win this game.

"He fought himself tonight. I think the outing was not one that we're used to seeing from him." - Mark Kotsay after his team’s loss against the Mariners on Monday.

 

 

"Julio is a gifted player. To be 21 years old and swing the bat the way he does, the way he runs — the ball just jumps off his bat. He's got that kind of bat speed and he's that strong. You just don't usually see that in young players, or any players. He's only going to continue to get better and we're watching it." - Scott Servais after his team’s win against the A’s on Monday.
