The Los Angeles Dodgers and Oakland Athletics face off on Thursday in an interleague showdown at Dodger Stadium.These two squads both have the division locked up so players resting always has to be a concern for these two teams.

The Athletics have found success this season but they have struggled a bit as of late. Heading into Wednesday’s game, the A’s had played into straight games where they only scored two runs and against the Dodgers that usually isn’t enough to get the job done. Matt Olson has been the star of the show for the A’s and coming into this game he has driven in 42 RBI’s. Outside of Olson it’s mostly been a balanced attack.

On the other side of this matchup is the Dodgers who had won six of their seven games heading into the game on Wednesday. This is an offense that has been strong and just a few games ago they put up 15 runs against the Rockies. That game was inside Coors Field, but scoring that many runs is still impressive. Mookie Betts has been an elite signing for the Dodgers and coming into this game he has hit 16 home runs and drove in 39 RBI’s.
