OAK and JP Sears have basically been a different team since the all star break. They have not lost an away series since then. JP has also been a stud since the end of June in away games.
@TOR 1 point over 7 innings (W8-4)
@SF 0 over 7 innings (W5-2)
@BOS 1 over 6 innings (W5-2)
@AZ 3 over 6 innings (W9-4)
Another fun fact. This is how Oak has performed the opening game when traveling from first away team to second away team the past 4 instances.
@NYM won 9-4
@SF won 5-2
@PHI won 6-2
@AZ won 9-4
On the other end we have Jon Gray for Tex who just returned from injury (or for whatever reason he was gone a month), and got smoked and taken out after 2 innings vs CLE. Jon previous faced CLE earlier in season and held them to 0 points over 7 innings. Jon also faced OAK earlier this season and allowed 1 point over 5 innings (a game they lose 1-0). So is he gonna get smoked and pulled early against OAK? We will see...
-TEX is 3-7 SU first home game back from a road trip
-TEX last time they swept White Sox (earlier this season) they then got swept by TOR. TEX just swept White Sox again.
If I end up being wrong... blame yourself for opening my thread jk jk
Good luck everyone
