Why bet on the Oakland A’s?
You have to give credit to the A’s for bouncing back and getting the win after getting thumped in the opening game of this series. It probably shouldn’t have come as a major surprise that they were able to do so, as this team has made a habit of finding ways to win, especially in the second half of the season, where they have gone on a fabulous run to pass the Mariners and get within a game and a half of the division favorites. Despite the big win on Tuesday night, Oakland have still had some problems against Houston this season, going just 7-11 against them in previous games. That said, they have played well at Minute Maid Park, boasting a 5-4 record in the 9 games played in Houston. The A’s will send Trevor Cahill (5-3, 3.44 ERA) to the mound for this one. The A’s have won 7 of the last 8 game he has started.Why bet on the Houston Astros?
