Las Vegas - Pablo Lopez is the ace of Minnesota's staff, but he was not pitching like an ace. Until the end of June. In his last two starts, Lopez has been ALL ACES, throwing 15 innings (0.60 ERA), allowing ONLY 1 earned run and posting 18 Ks. Oakland will counter with Hogan Harris and the rookie has had some issues the last three times on the hill. Double H has been rocked for 22 hits and 15 earned runs in just 14 innings of work.
