The Athletics and Brewers are scheduled to play the series-deciding game tonight at Las Vegas Ballpark. Following a high-scoring opener and a subsequent A's victory, both teams are looking to clinch the series. The Athletics will rely on right-hander Jack Perkins for his second start of the season.
