Cleveland Breaks Oakland’s Winnig Streak

by @ 12:47 pm. Filed under 2008 Athletics

After sweeping the Blue Jays and winning their last two against the Indians, Oakland ended their five game winning streak with a 7-1 loss at Cleveland today. Oakland’s only run came off of a Travis Buck triple, followed by a Mark Ellis infield single in the fourth inning. Two of Oakland’s three hits came in that inning. But the lone run was no match for Cleveland, who pounded out seven runs on eight hits to avoid the sweep. Some people even blame the 38 degree weather and snow for the A’s inability to come alive on the bats.

This is just a minor setback. Although another sweep might have been possible, Oakland seems to be showing the MLB that they are able to win games consistently and are boasting an 8-5 record, and on top of the AL West. Their next game is tomorrow at the Chicago White Sox.
