Pitching Match Up<br />
</h2>
<p>
Oakland: Jesse Hahn (1-2, 2.74 ERA)<br />
Seattle: Christian Bergman (0-1, 4.15 ERA)
</p>
<p>
Jesse Hahn gets the call for this series finale tonight and in his last start he only gave up one earned run in seven innings, but the bullpen let him down in a 5-2 loss to the Texas Rangers. The A's have lost three of his last four starts and in that span he has given up seven earned runs in 24 innings and for the season the lineup has not given him much run support. In three career starts against the Mariners Hahn is 1-1 with an ERA of 2.50. This season Hahn has only given up one HR in 42 innings and is holding opponents to a .214 batting average. Oakland has lost his last four road starts and they have only won one of their last five games facing a team with a losing record with Hahn on the hill.
</p>
<p>
Christian Bergman goes for the Mariners and in his last start he gave up three earned runs in five innings in a 4-0 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays. In two starts this season he has gone eight innings and given up four earned runs. Bergman spent last season with the Colorado Rockies where he had an ERA of 8.39 in 23 innings of work. In 57 career appearances, including 16 starts, opponents are batting over .350 against him.
