Episode 98 -- The Oakland Athletics offense burst out in the fifth inning of Monday's game against the Seattle Mariners, pushing across eight runs. They ended up winning the contest 11-1, pushing them into first place in the AL West at 6-4 with the Houston Astros off-day. Khris Davis hit his first home run of the season and appears to be turning a corner. Frankie Montas was excellent over seven innings. So what were the takeaways from last night's game and what should we still be keeping an eye out for?

In the second segment, Jason gives his prediction for Jesus Luzardo's first MLB start, Khris Davis' career stats against the Texas Rangers, and another (silly) reason to believe K.D. is about to go off. This is Oakland's first matchup with the Rangers, so what should we expect over the next three days?
