Athletics host rival Angels on Saturday
The Angels look to take an American League West win from Oakland on Saturday when the teams take the field at McAfee Coliseum.
The Angels start Jeff Weaver, 0-2, 5.12 ERA. His last trip was a loss, a 4-2 team loss against the Orioles, when he threw 7 innings, allowing 4 runs on 5 hits.
Sporting an 8-9 overall record and a 3-4 mark within the division, the Angels aim to knock the Athletics (5-3 in the division) for a loss.
The Athletics (8-9) opened as 130 favorites and they host an Angels team that has won 8 of their 17 games this season. The total opened at 9.
Ken Macha's troops were at home against the Angels last game and came away with a 5-3 win, a game that went as a push against 8. Oddsmakers had them as favorites.
Oakland's hitting hasn't been much to write home about, as they are averaging just 7.4 hits per game on the season, ranked #14 in the American League.
LAA: J. Weaver (0-2, 5.12)
OAK: D. Haren (0-1, 5.40)
