Team Previews
Los Angeles Angels
The Los Angeles Angels have struggled this season, particularly in hitting, with a batting average of .235, ranking them 22nd in the league. They have accumulated 417 runs, ranking 25th overall. The team's pitching has also been inconsistent, with a team ERA of 4.63, placing them 28th in the league. Jose Soriano, however, has shown promise in his last few outings, and he will need to perform well against the Athletics to give the Angels a chance to cover the spread.
Oakland Athletics
The Oakland Athletics have also had a difficult season, as evidenced by their 43-63 record. Their batting average stands at .232, making them 27th in the league. With 440 runs scored, they are slightly ahead of the Angels but still find themselves in the bottom tier overall. On the pitching front, the Athletics have an ERA of 4.40, which is better than the Angels but still not ideal. Osvaldo Bido has been a bright spot in their rotation, with a solid ERA of 3.09.
