The Oakland A’s are back home at the Coliseum after their 6 game road trip and are looking to rack up some wins against the struggling Chicago White Sox. Former White Sox Brandon McCarthy will be looking for his first win since April 10th including his third loss of the season against the Royals on Saturday.
