MLB Interleague Betting Action - Oakland A's at Atlanta Braves
The Oakland
Athletics, (23-19, 23-19 RL) coming
into tonight’s contest
having lost three consecutive sports
betting contests after getting emphatically
swept by the red-hot Cleveland Indians
but have still managed to win five of
their last ten online betting games in
the BetUS Sportsbook.
The Atlanta Braves, (20-20, 24-16 RL)
split their four-game series with the
Philadelphia Phillies but have dropped
five of their last seven games.
The Braves however,
have the best home record in all of baseball
and are back on their home field for
this matchup after losing to Philadelphia
5-0 on Thursday, getting just four hits
against the all-star left-hander.

The A's
(23-19) are also looking to bounce
back from a loss after falling to the
Indians three straight times, including
consecutive shutouts in the series’ first
two games.
"We've run into some pitching," manager
Bob Geren said. "We've played good
defense and pitched very well. We just
haven't scored any runs."
Oakland
will hand the ball to impressive left-hander
Dana Eveland (3-3, 3.23 ERA) who picked
up a loss in his last outing, despite
limiting the Texas Rangers to three
runs in six innings of Saturday’s
6-4 loss.

Atlanta
will match Eveland by giving the ball
to right-hander Jair Jurrjens (4-3,
3.10), who is pitching on four day’s rest after throwing just
69 pitches in his last start and getting
charged with a loss after allowing three
runs in five innings of Monday’s
5-0 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates.
"I think I did a pretty good job," Jurrjens
told the Braves' site. "They didn't
hit me so hard. Sometimes, you don't
have luck on your side."
Jurrjens, in his first full major league
season, is making his first start in
interleague play.
