The Oakland Athletics will try for just their second series sweep of the season when they face the Colorado Rockies in the finale of their three-game set on Sunday in Denver.
The only other team Oakland has swept this season was the Milwaukee Brewers from June 9-11.
After throwing 5 2/3 shutout innings and getting the win in a 3-0 victory against the Boston Red Sox on July 18, he came back against the Houston Astros five days later and held the defending World Series champions to one run over five frames.Medina's last start also marked the first time he worked with rookie catcher Tyler Soderstrom in the majors.
"We've had a good relationship since the minor leagues," Medina said. "Soderstrom is really intelligent. He's a tremendous catcher and hitter. It was another experience for us here in the big leagues. It's great to reunite with him up here and to see him playing in the big leagues now.""It's part of that process for those two to get to know each other a little bit," A's manager Mark Kotsay said of Medina and Soderstrom.
Medina will need to pitch carefully to Randal Grichuk, the hottest hitter in the Colorado lineup. He had three hits on Saturday to raise his average to .312 and blasted his second homer in as many days."There's been a little bit of an emphasis on getting the ball in the air," Colorado manager Bud Black said. "There's been a minor tweak in his swing, in his setup."
