 Colorado has won five straight games against the A's -- three in 2018 and two this year -- the longest win streak by either team in series history. Oakland has managed just eight runs combined in those five games (1.6 per game).

 Since opening the season 11-3 -- best in MLB through August 8 -- the Rockies have gone an MLB-worst 10-22 (.313) since August 9. Colorado's 6.73 home ERA this year would be the fourth highest by any team since ERA became an official stat in 1913, and highest since the Rockies themselves in 1999 (7.11).

 Oakland is averaging 5.65 runs per game on the road, tied with the White Sox for the most in the American League. That would be the Athletics' third-highest road scoring average since moving to Oakland in 1968, behind 2000 (6.01) and 2001 (5.69).

 Matt Olson leads the A's in home runs (13) and RBI (38) despite a .193 batting average. He's posted a .310/.420/.571 slash line in interleague play this year, compared to .155/.283/.411 versus AL opponents.

 Sean Manaea is the first A's pitcher to go 4-0 with a sub-2.00 ERA and fewer than two walks allowed over a four-start span since Rick Langford in 1980.

 Charlie Blackmon is hitting .475 (28/59) this year against left-handers. For his career, Blackmon's .311 batting average against lefties is the highest by any active left-handed batter (minimum 1000 PA vs. LHP), and no other qualifiers are within 20 points of him (Joey Votto, .289).

HP - Guccione, 1B - Blaser, 2B - Marquez, 3B - Morales

The Oakland A's may feel like Tuesday's game at the Colorado Rockies is an off day after the week the American League West leaders have had.
Oakland (30-18) has played 10 games in the last seven days, including three doubleheaders. The last one came Monday in Seattle, where the A's beat the Mariners 9-0 in the nightcap to split the day and remain firmly in charge of the division.

Weary A's kick off 2-game set at Rockies

DENVER (AP)  Antonio Senzatela pitched the first complete game of his career and Elias Diaz hit a two-run homer to lead the Colorado Rockies over the Oakland Athletics 3-1 on Tuesday night.
Senzatela allowed six hits and retired his last eight batters against the AL West leaders for Colorado's first complete game since German Marquez went the distance in April 2019. The right-hander fanned Mark Canha with a 97 mph fastball and got Jake Lamb on a grounder to end it.
