Luis Medina gets the start as the A’s look to end five-game skid against Seattle

After another blowout loss Monday night, the Oakland Athletics will try to snap a five-game losing streak Tuesday night when they continue a four-game series against the Seattle Mariners. Rookie right-hander Luis Medina will make his fourth start of the season for Oakland while Seattle will go with left-hander Marco Gonzales.

Kyle Muller allowed five runs before anyone had time to blink Monday night in an 11-2 loss in the series opener. The bullpen didn’t provide any relief either while the offense managed just five hits and struck out 11 times.

Medina struggled in a spot start at the end of April, but has looked better since joining the rotation two weeks ago.
