OAKLAND, Calif. -- The Oakland Athletics powered their way to a 3-1 series win over the Boston Red Sox last weekend at Oakland Coliseum, hitting eight home runs to give them 64 for the season.
Now the A's will try to continue their power surge when they open a two-game interleague series against the Miami Marlins on Tuesday night at home.
The A's are on pace to hit 236 home runs -- 67 more than they did last season. They've gone deep in 14 of their past 15 games and led the American League in home runs entering their off day Monday.
