Game 55: A's (28-26) @ Red Sox (31-23)

By Randy Booth

The Red Sox have taken the first two from the A's and now they have the opportunity to sweep one of the best teams in the AL West. Which isn't saying much.

Tim Wakefield hits the hill for the Sox:

W-L G GS CG SHO SV BS IP H R ER HR BB K ERA WHIP
2010 - Tim Wakefield 1-3 12 7 0 0 0 0 52.1 60 34 33 7 14 25 5.68 1.41

The A's send out the very tough lefty Brett Anderson:
