Preview

Oakland Athletics and Seattle Mariners will play game 2 of their 3 game series on Saturday at RingCentral Coliseum. Mariners are 1-0 in ethos series and are also leading the record 8-3 in 11 games played between them in this season so far.

Oakland Athletics 

Oakland Athletics have lost game 1 of this series 2-10 with a really bad performance for the A's and now they have lost 11 of their last 13 games Overall and lost 6 of their last 6 home games. Irvin was in the mound for this game and he allowed 6 Hits z 6 Runs and 5 Earned runs in 6 innings pitched in that game. Oakland are 29th in runs scored and 22nd in runs allowed this season.

Probable pitcher:

James Karprielian (3-7, 4.33 ERA) will be on the mound for the A's in game 2 on Saturday, Karprielian's last start was against Texas Rangers and he went 5.1 innings allowing 2 Earned runs and had 5 strikeouts in a game that ended as a 1-2 loss for the A's.

Seattle Mariners 

Seattle Mariners continued their winning streak by beating the A's in game 1 of this series and now they have 4 games winning streak. Seattle have beaten Oakland in all of the last 10 games in Oakland so it's becoming a nightmare for the A's to play at home Vs the Mariners at this point. Gonzalez was on the mound in the last game and he allowed 6 Hits, 2 Runs and 1 Earned run in 5.1 Innings pitched. Mariners are the 17th in runs scored and 8th in runs allowed this season.

Probable pitcher:

Logan Gilbert (10-5, 3.51 ERA) will be in the mound for the Mariners in game 2 on Saturday, Gilbert's last start was against Texas Rangers and he went 6 innings allowing 3 earned runs and had 5 strikeouts in a game that ended as a 3-5 loss for the Mariners.

Betting Trends

Oakland Athletics have gone Under the total in 4 of last 5 games played Vs the Mariners.

Oakland Athletics are 2-11 Straight up last 13 games.

Oakland Athletics are 0-6 straight up last 6 home games.

Seattle Mariners have gone Over the total in 6 of last 6 games.

Seattle Mariners are 8-3 Straight up last 11 games.

Seattle Mariners are 10-0 straight up last 10 games played Vs Oakland on the road.

Prediction

I like this one to be a low scoring game, the Under is 4-0 in Karprielians last starts Vs American League West and also the Under is 6-1 in the last 7 Saturday games for Oakland and also the Under is 4-0-1 in the last 5 Gilbert starts on Saturday so I think it will probably be a Mariners win in a lie scoring game so give me the Under in this one.

PICK: Total Under 7 (+105).
