This game maybe meaningless, but Los Angeles is playing like a team that cares. The Angels have won seven in a row and are the hottest team in MLB next to the Cubs. LA has also won six straight over the A's and will start Patrick Sandoval who has a 2.04 ERA in his nine starts.

Oakland has lost the last four games started by Adrian Martinez. He has a 7.03 ERA in his last five starts, and Oakland has lost eight out of last 10 games overall.
