If you can remember all the way back to July 11th, that's when the A's last put a two-game winning streak on the books. They'll try to do that tonight behind Greg Smith, who has matched up well with the Angels, opposed by John Lackey, who has dominated the A's - and most everyone - in his career.
Tonight's A's lineup has Rajai Davis leading off, and Emil Brown batting cleanup,
against a RHP. Need more be said?
