Baseball is a sport that s always changing.
Last week, the Oakland A s were about as down as you could be as a team with a four game losing streak, and they watching their Wild Card lead over the Boston Red Sox get down to one game. 7 days later, we find the A s have won 6 in a row, taking 2 out of three from Detroit, and then traveling to Baltimore this week and sweeping the Orioles in three games. The A s traveled onto Tampa Bay this weekend and came out of Tropicana Field with a two out of three, and they find themselves still 8 games ahead of the Boston Red Sox in the wild card race. When you look at the whole situation, the A s should thank the baseball gods that the Red Sox haven t been able to get it together during that last two week s, and they are currently as of today on a 8 game losing streak. Boston travels to Cleveland starting on Tuesday.
