The Texas Rangers saw their winning streak stopped at three games after suffering a 5-1 loss at the hands of the Seattle Mariners last night. They’ll continue their road trip later when they find themselves at Oakland, where they are 3-0 in their last three games there. Meanwhile, the Oakland A’s, are 5-1 in their last six home games. The A’s are among the majors’ leaders in runs scored with 351.

Writer’s Prediction

Thanks to a bustling offense, the A’s get another win at home at the expense of the visiting Rangers. Take the A’s as -170 home favorites.
