Oakland A's Under Streak

Just thought I would throw this out there, the A's have played in 12 straight games that have stayed under the total, one of those a push though. Do what you want with this, but I would say an over game is right around the corner for these guys.

a wise man once said to go with a streak...if you go against a streak because it is due to end, one can lose many times...now if you ride a streak you can only lose 1 time

Yeah i know that as well, but this is a 12 game streak, these don't come along that often with 50/50 odds, I was just saying maybe we should start to consider the facts based on previous records that there is probably a 95% chance an over game will hit in the next 3 games.

Yeah, I was looking on oddsshark.com, and from what I saw it was 12 straight without an over... that is including the push.
