The series with the A’s started out with a bang. The Diamondbacks took the first two and pushed their winning streak to six games. They were also two games above .500, the best position they had been in all season. However, things didn’t stay as rosy when they took a quick hop over to the smoke filled Colosseum. The offense forgot to pack their bats, and the pitching just wasn’t able to make one run on six hits hold up over either game.
The Giants are a very different opponent compared to the A’s.
