Tribe looking to finish their road trip strong against the A's. History is not in their favor, as they are 15-26 in Oakland since 2001.

Matchups:
Jimenez vs. Godfrey
Gomez vs. McCarthy
Masterson vs. Ross

Saturday's game will probably be the toughest but 2 of 3 would be a great finish to this road trip. We'll really be pressed to produce runs in this series and not rely on the home run as much.

As always, Go Tribe!

I think if the tribe can score more runs than the A's...they will win

False. If the A's score less runs than the Indians, the Indians will win.

But now I'm confused. I've heard people saying things like "less is more" throughout my life. So, how would that fit into things?

Ubaldo's been falling behind batters all night. It's amazing we've faired as well as we have.

Good thing the Tribe didn't sign Yoenis Cespedes.
