A's Struggle to Avoid Worst Record | Oakland Athletics News

The A’s are in freefall, tied for the worst record in baseball at 49-76, and they’re desperate for a win tonight against the Royals.

This is their chance to break the streak—and maybe even salvage some pride. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
