Tonight the A's and Rangers will kickstart their second series meeting of the season. In the first meeting, the A's bested Texas 3-1 in the four-gamer. Mark Mulder pitched a complete shutout in game #3. In game 4, however, A's closer Billy Koch blew a save and allowed for a big Texas 9th inning. Alex Rodriguez hit his 1st homer of the season in that game. The Rangers look for redemption here at home.
