The A's come in riding a modest, but still worrisome 3-game losing streak. Indeed, last night pretty much followed the usual plan when the A's face Jared Weaver: 4-hit 9-K shutout, give up a key hit to some Angels spot player, Angels win by 4.

The A's counter with former slegnA Bartolo Colon, he of the infamous 38-consecutive-strikes versus his former team back in April. Another such streak would be fantastic tonight, as the A's need someone to pitch deep without giving up a bunch of runs. Also, someone that didn't let Mike Trout on base all the time would be cool, too.
