Oakland A’s back on top of the AL West

August 29, 2005 | Baseball | By: Mark VandeWettering

Oakland AthleticsWell, after a couple of weeks where they seemed to be firmly in reverse, the A’s have won five games in a row and are now back atop the AL West, courtesy in part to the Angel’s complete collapse against the Devil Rays. After trying for the sweep today against Baltimore, the A’s will go to Anaheim and then return for a home series against the Yankees. I’ll be out there cheering this weekend.

Update: A’s complete the sweep: 10-5 in 12 innings.
