The A's (38-51) may have an even tougher time at the plate against John Lackey (4-4, 4.93 ERA), who looks to build off one of his best starts of the season.
Lackey pitched seven innings against the New York Yankees last Sunday, allowing two runs and six hits while striking out six in the 5-3 victory. He had given up six runs and nine hits over 4 2-3 innings against Texas in his previous outing.
Lackey is 14-4 with a 2.80 ERA in 26 starts against the Athletics. He's won four of his last five outings against them.
Brett Anderson (5-7, 4.64) looks to extend a 13-inning scoreless streak when he returns to the mound for Oakland after leaving his last start early because of back stiffness.
The 21-year-old Anderson gave up three hits in four innings against Tampa Bay last Sunday before exiting. Geren wasn't too concerned about the back issue and figured the extra rest during the All-Star break should clear things up.
The left-hander is 2-0 with a 1.54 ERA in his last four outings.









7/19/09 4:05pm MLB Baseball 977 Los Angeles Angels/Oakland Athletics Under 8½ -110 (J Lackey - R must Start B Anderson - L must Start)

Gonna take the Mets for no other reason than value........

FYI Shefield not in lineup........but wtf


A lack of run support has hurt the 32-year-old throughout the season, particularly at home. Vazquez is just 2-5 in 10 Turner Field starts so far in 2009, with the Braves having scored one or less runs in three of those defeats.
