The A's have won eight straight and they start Brett Anderson, who comes off one of his best outings of the season, allowing one run at Cleveland. The Mariners have lost eight of nine, including their last five, and starter Mike Leake has lost six of his last nine. His last start saw him give up seven runs at Texas. A's keep winning.
Brett Anderson is 8-5 with a 2.38 career ERA against the Mariners over his career, and 5-3 with a 4.14 ERA this season. Seattle was one of the best teams in the league at hitting lefties earlier in the season but now they are only 17th in runs scored against lefties and 16th in OPS against lefties. Mike Leake is 1-5 with a 5.21 ERA over his last eight starts. He is 2-2 with a 4.15 ERA against the Athletics in nine career starts. The Athletics are on a roll right now winning five in a row and eight of ten while the Mariners have lost five in a row and eight of ten. Lay the favorite at home.
