The Oakland A’s dropped a winnable game on Sunday, but they still left Anaheim with a series victory over the AL West division rival Los Angeles Angels. Now they’ll get their first look at another western foe, with the Seattle Mariners paying a visit to the Coliseum for three games.
The opener will see Frankie Montas take the mound for the green and gold. The right-hander has been quality or close to it in each of his last five starts, totaling 28u2153 innings with a 3.49 ERA, 25 Ks, 8 BB, and no more than three runs in any single game.
