Oakland at Texas 8:05 ET
A's over Rangers- The Oakland A's are beginning to show signs of life as they are trying to recover from a season low 16-games under .500 as they have won six of their last eight and are 17-11 in their last 28 contests. Their starting rotation is 14-7 over that span with a 2.11 ERA and tonight they start Jesse Chavez (3-6, 2.52 ERA) who has worked at least six innings in eight of his last nine outings. Texas will start rookie Chi Chi Gonzalez (2-1, 0.90) whose only big league loss came against Oakland 10 days ago. This is his fifth career start and it catches up with him here. Take OAKLAND!
