The Oakland Athletics will try to snap a 15-game road losing streak Tuesday night when they continue a three-game series against the Pittsburgh Pirates. The A’s had plenty of chances in the opener, but were instead saddled with a 5-4 loss dropping their season record to 12-50. Oakland is the first team since the Red Sox in 1932 to lose 50 of their first 62 games.
James Kaprielian will get the start for the A’s Tuesday. Since returning from the minors on May 13, Kaprielian has a 4.57 ERA nad a 4.
