Athletics are 6-1 in Cahills last 7 Wednesday starts.

Athletics are 9-2 in Cahills last 11 starts vs. American League West.

Home team is 4-1 in Eddings’ last 5 Wednesday games behind home plate vs. Los Angeles.

My Prediction: The A’s and Angels have split the first 2 games of their 4 game series after Oakland’s 6-1 win last night. Trevor Cahill, who is on his way to the All-Star game with the numbers he’s put up so far, starts for Oakland while the Angels counter with Ervin Santana. Despite a high ERA, Santana doesn’t walk many batters. He’s a contact pitcher and Oakland is not much of a contact team. Cahill has been fantastic against the Angels in his career allowing only 9 ER in 7 starts. Santana is coming off a shutout win against the Braves. The total is low at 6.5, but I’m still going to take the under.

Under 6.5
