The A's know they will beat the M's even before the game starts. At the same time, the M's know they will lose.

I think before the current series they had a meeting and decided that Oakland were going to win every game 5-2. So expect the same tonight.

I believe that's 12 in a row vs. the Mariners. I can't explain, but I sure do love it! :laugh

Because the Mariners' pitching is bad.

There's always that aspect. Outside of the days when they had RJ, was the pitching ever good?

Our longest win streak against one team is 16 straight wins against the Yankees.

Here's to hoping we can add to the streak today... Go A's!

Was this the Philadelphia A's or the A's of the early 70's. ?

:atthepc It was during a stretch from '89 to 1990.

correction:

AP--...The 12 straight wins against one team is the second-longest streak in Oakland history, trailing a 16-game win streak against the New York Yankees from September 1989 to May 1991. ... Seattle's longest losing streak vs. one team is 15 against the Boston Red Sox from May 1977 to June 1978...
