Episode 139 -- The Oakland Athletics scored a win yesterday, forcing a decisive Game 3 today at noon. Jason goes over Game 2 and some of the help the A's received from Nick Madrigal in order to secure Wednesday's victory. He also talks about Bob Melvin's interesting usage of Liam Hendriks to close out the game.

In the second segment, Jason previews Game 3, including who could be eating up some innings for both squads and how far they'll be allowed to go. Mike Fiers seems like the obvious pick for Oakland since he's a rested righty, but there are some factors that work against him getting the nod, too.
