He later walks another batter on four pitches. Then he allows a single, and then he allows a home run. And the A's are heading back to Oakland to open a three-game series with the Rays--still trailing Tampa by a half game for first in the wild-card race and now trailing Texas by three games in the A.L. West.<br />Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218278987255792995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-62651900246122482452013-08-29T16:21:38.176-04:002013-08-29T16:21:38.176-04:00In the fourth game of a four-game series in Detroi...In the fourth game of a four-game series in Detroit, the A's are leading, 6-3, going into the bottom of the ninth. Oakland has won all three of the other games in the series against the A.L. Central-leading Tigers, and, yet, the A's have failed to make up any ground on Texas in their own division because the Rangers also have won their last three games. Today's the day, however, because Texas is idle; a fourth win would pull the A's back within two games of the lead in the A.L. West. Plus, just moments ago, Tampa Bay, which was a half-game up on the A's in the wild-card race, lost to the Angels.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218278987255792995noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1697242053625998558.post-58609416661736947382013-08-29T16:18:11.214-04:002013-08-29T16:18:11.214-04:00Well, that's what I would call a missed opport...Well, that's what I would call a missed opportunity.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11218278987255792995noreply@blogger.com
