This is a 1* FREE PLAY on the Athletics.

We had a play on the A's in their 5-4 win here yesterday. Oakland played a double-header against Detroit to open up the second half and it managed the victory here as well in the opener of this three-game series vs. the Rangers yesterday. We're expecting a similar result here as well on Saturday.

Taylor Hearn is just 4-6 with a 5.78 ERA for the Rangers. He has no advantage over James Kaprielian, who is 1-5 with a 5.09 ERA.

Texas is getting a little too much respect from the oddsmakers on the road here. Consider OAKLAND on Saturday night.

Good luck, NP
