Cahill stars as Athletics edge Rays

Baseball Betting Lines

08/20/2010 - Oakland, CA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Cliff Pennington's two-run double in the bottom of the sixth was the difference, as the Oakland Athletics edged Tampa Bay, 4-3, in the opener of a four-game series at the Coliseum.

Kurt Suzuki and Rajai Davis both added a run-scoring groundout for Oakland, which has won three straight after losing four in a row.

Trevor Cahill (13-5) gave up three runs over eight solid innings for the Athletics. The right-hander did allow seven hits, ending his streak of 20 consecutive starts with six hits or fewer. He had matched the modern major league record set by Nolan Ryan, who established the mark from July 27, 1972 to April 18, 1973 while a member of the California Angels.

Carlos Pena blasted a two-run homer and Evan Longoria added a solo blast for the Rays, who had a five-game winning streak halted and fell one game behind New York for first place in the American League East. The Yankees beat Detroit earlier Thursday.
