This is the first time that the Rays and Athletics have met in Oakland this season. In the history of the two franchises, the A's have dominated here, going 53-24 (.688 winning percentage) at home versus Tampa Bay.

The Rays have won each of their last two games, on the road against the Rockies, outscoring Colorado by a combined 21-4. This snapped an 11-game road losing streak for Tampa Bay, which was the longest road losing streak of the season by any team in MLB.

The A's were blanked at home by the Astros on Wednesday, 7-0, while allowing exactly 10 hits for the fourth consecutive game. It marked Oakland's 45th game this season allowing double-digit hits, a total which ranks first in the AL, and tied for first in MLB (with Arizona).

Matt Moore threw 7.1 innings of two-run ball in his last start in a home loss versus the Orioles last Saturday. Moore has struggled on the road this season to the tune of a 5.93 ERA with a 0-4 record (5-3, 3.46 at home in 2016).

In his last start, against the Blue Jays at home, Sonny Gray got his first win since late-April, despite pitching only six innings while allowing four walks and three earned runs. Gray has lasted more than six innings in just one of his last 11 starts, and five times total all season. In 2015, Gray completed more than six innings 18 different times.

Tim Beckham went 5-for-5 at the plate on Wednesday, after never having had a game with more than two hits in his entire career. He became only the second shortstop this season to have five or more hits in a game (also Aledmys Diaz on April 23 vs. San Diego).

HP - Danley, 1B - Fletcher, 2B - Ripperger, 3B - West

OAKLAND -- Oakland A's right-hander Kendall Graveman was 12 starts into the season and was searching for answers. He was 2-6 with a 5.28 ERA, and opposing hitters were batting .309 with 11 home runs against him.
That's when pitching coach Curt Young made a suggestion that helped turn Graveman's season around.

Rays-Athletics preview

OAKLAND, Calif. (AP)  Ryon Healy was so focused on getting to second base the Athletics rookie didn't realize he had hit a game-ending home run until he looked up and saw third base coach Ron Washington celebrating.
After that, the Oakland third baseman slowed up his trot to allow the players in the bullpen to join the fun.
