The Pirates don't have the look of a reliable road favorite here. Another game, another loss (5-1) on Monday, the offense continuing to sputter, now on just 26 runs across the past 13 games, and losses in 11 of the last 14. After not providing enough run support for the recently-hot Bailey Falter last night, not sure the Bucs are going to be able to help Mitch Keller any more this evening. Meanwhile, the A's continue to overachieve, the bullpen again light-out last night for Mark Kotsay, and Tuesday starter Alex Wood coming off a solid effort last Thursday at Yankee Stadium, allowing just 1 run in 5 2/3 IP of a 3-1 win over the Yanks. Play A's on Money Line
The Pirates are acting like they have had enough of the Bay Area, managing just 2 hits in last night's 5-1 loss at the Coliseum. After playing a weekend set across the bridge, Pittsburgh will have spent nearly a week in Northern California by the time this series concludes. The A's are certainly no fun to play these days, winning the weekend set in Baltimore before watching Joe Boyle and Mark Kotsay's underrated bullpen shut down the Bucs, who have scored only 26 runs across their last 13 games. The scoreline could be low again tonight if Pittsburgh's Mitch Keller pitches as well as his last road start at Philly, when allowing just 2 runs in 7 IP. Play Pirates-A's "Under"
