There won't be October baseball in Oakland this year, but the A's do have a couple of postseason series to look forward to. The Double-A Midland RockHounds are attempting to defend their 2014 Texas League championship, and the High-A Stockton Ports are looking for their first California League title since 2008. Unfortunately, both teams lost their opening games on the road Wednesday and now face 0-1 series deficits entering Thursday. That means different things for each team, too -- Midland is in a best-of-5 showdown against the Corpus Christi Hooks (Astros), while Stockton is in a best-of-3 wild card play-in round against the San Jose Giants.
