On the Oakland A’s podcast with Morris Phillips:

#1 The Chicago White Sox ended their 21 game skid against the Oakland A’s. The A’s know about losing streaks and can appreciate the services the Sox went through.

#2 How relieving does it got to be for a ballclub that’s suffered through all this to get that weight off their backs.

#3 The Sox got home run help from Andrew Benitendi who hit a two run home run and the Sox didn’t look back winning it 5-1.

#4 The A’s starter Ross Stripling suffered his 11 loss. Pitching 5.1 innings, allowing five hits, four earned runs, walked one and struck out two hitters.

#5 The White Sox and A’s wrap up the three game series today at the Coliseum. Starting pitcher for the Sox RHP Davis Martin (0-1, ERA 7.11) and for the A’s RHP Joey Estes (5-4, ERA 4.77). How do you see today’s match ups.
