  • Masterson Struggles in Loss to A's Indians Endure Fourth Straight Road
    Masterson struggles in loss to A's Indians endure fourth straight road defeat in Oakland By Jane Lee / Special to MLB.com OAKLAND -- Both the Indians and A's entered Thursday's contest more than 15 games out of their respective division races. Both have endured losing streaks as long as five games this this season. Both are showering its rookies with countless opportunities. Essentially, both have transformed the field into a classroom. However, while the A's have recently watched their youth play a part in the spoiler role, the Indians have watched their work-in-progress group flounder toward the finish line. And, on Thursday, it showed. The Tribe managed just six hits off five Oakland pitchers while Cleveland starter Justin Masterson lasted just four frames en route to a 5-2 loss in the first of a four-game set against the A's, who are winners of nine of their past 11. Meanwhile, the Indians watched their current road trip record move to 0-4. Furthermore, they have lost 15 of their past 19 games -- basically erasing what was once a second-half rally. Aside from a two-run fifth inning, the offense failed to produce any type of rally on Thursday night. Trevor Crowe hit a run-scoring triple in that frame, which was capped off with an RBI ground out off the bat of Michael Brantley against A's starter Clayton Mortensen. The Oakland right-hander exited the game after that frame, but the A's relief corps kept the Indians lineup in check, scattering just two hits through four frames while closer Andrew Bailey picked up his 25th save of the season -- an ongoing record for Oakland rookies.

By Baxter Holmes After racing in the shadows for much of the season, the Angels now find themselves in the spotlight during their American League West pennant race with the Texas Rangers. But Sunday, when the glare was upon them with a chance to sweep the New York Yankees, they blinked. Angels outfielder Peter Bourjos dropped a fly ball in the seventh inning when he lost track of it in the sun, allowing the Yankees to take the lead that Mariano Rivera held on to with his 599th save, giving the Yankees a 6-5 win at Angel Stadium. The Angels are 21/2 games behind Texas in the AL West with 16 games remaining, the next 10 of which are on the road, starting Monday with a three-game series in Oakland. "It's a play I've got to make," Bourjos said. "It was a turning point in the game, and we lost the game right there." Angels Manager Mike Scioscia wasn't too hard on the 24-year-old, who has been an excellent outfielder for the Angels this season but missed that ball and overran one in the fourth that Eric Chavez turned into a double. "This is not an easy outfield with the wind and the sun, and that ball was flying today," Scioscia said.
