    Oakland A's / Angels : ***** Pick Oakland A's


    Aaron Harang looks to build upon his best outing of the season as the A's continue their three-game series with the Anaheim Angels at Network Associates Coliseum.

    In Sunday's 3-1 loss to Seattle, Harang allowed just two runs and six hits over seven innings, striking out two without issuing a walk.

    Harang, who shut out the Mariners through the first six innings, retired the first eight he faced and then seven straight during a later stretch.

    Ramon Ortiz (9-6, 4.66 ERA) goes for the Angels today.

    Ortiz's five-game winning streak was snapped with Monday's 6-3 loss to Texas.

    The right-hander, who boasted a 3.38 ERA during the streak, was reached for four runs - three earned - and eight hits over 4 1-3 innings, his shortest outing of the season.

    He also walked four and struck out just two.

    Ortiz has struggled in his eight career starts against Oakland, going 2-4 with a 5.96 ERA.

    The Angels are 19-22 on the road this season, while the A's are 30-14 at home.

    Take the A's tonight ***** PICK
