Rangers implode against Oakland 9-3 and drop a game in the American League West standings. These two teams come back tomorrow at 1:05 for the final game of the series with the Rangers looking to clinch and A's looking for a series win.
The Rangers take on the A's in Arlington. The Rangers hold a four game lead in the American League West and can reduce their Magic Number to 3 with a win.
Mark Lowe decided that since he won't be pitching in the postseason anyway, keeping the Angels' out of the playoffs was worth allowing a game winning home run to something named George Kottaras. The A's even the series and drop Rangers' lead to four.
