Get ready for some early baseball as the Athletics finish up a quick trip to Tampa Bay. Yesterday, Mike Fiers and the bullpen kept the Rays down as the A’s took the lead off back-to-back homers.
Today, the Athletics send out Brett Anderson to try and take the series from the Rays. Anderson’s last few starts have been solid enough, but his ERA seems to have stabilized right below 4.00. The important thing Brett has done so far is to pitch innings, the last 7 starts Anderson has thrown at least 5 innings, and often 6+.
