    After losing on a walk-off home run last night in the first one, Oakland takes on the Mariners in the middle game of the series this afternoon.

    It’ll be a matchup of recently-traded pitchers as lefty JP Sears is on the bump for the A’s while Seattle will be countering with deadline acquisition Luis Castillo. But first, right-hander Adam Oller will be opening the game for Oakland before giving way to Sears.
