OAKLAND, Calif. -- Right-handers Kendall Graveman and Ricky Nolasco will face each other for the third time this season when the Oakland A's and Los Angeles Angels open a three-game series on Monday night at the Oakland Coliseum.
Graveman (2-2, 2.95 ERA) earned the victory and Nolasco took the loss on Opening Night at the Coliseum when the A's defeated the Angels 4-2.
Nolasco got even on April 27 in Anaheim when he outdueled Graveman in a 2-1 Angels victory.
The A's should be riding an emotional high after back-to-back, walk-off wins against the Detroit Tigers.
