The A’s are back in the win column after seeing their 11-game losing streak come to an end yesterday in the series finale against the Phillies. They now sit dead last in the division with a 23-31 record and things aren’t feeling positive right now as the end of May rapidly approaches. The lineup hasn’t been hitting, the starters have been inconsistent at best, and the bullpen has been a source of major frustration for the past couple of weeks. They need to turn things around fast if they want to get back in the playoff hunt. That road back to contention begins tonight with the first of two games against the team in second place in the division, the Houston Astros, who the club will be seeing for the first time this season.
