live in cincinnati where the giants are looking for redemption against the reds, but we begin with jim kozimor live at the oakland coliseum where the a's are trying to recapture their hot streak. jim, good morning. >> reporter: marla and jon, thanks very much. the question in oakland is just how resilient are these athletics as they head into a must-win game at the coliseum tonight, game three against the detroit tigers. two notes. one, remember early this year the a's were nine games under .500 and went on to win the west. recently september 22nd in new york, in 14 innings they lost 10-9 to the yankees. after that they ran off nine wins in 11 games. that's the type of resill aens they have had all season long. who gets the ball tonight? it's not going to be a rookie pitcher like in games one and two. they'll go with brett anderson. the left-hander will get the start shall his first since the end of september. he's been out for three weeks after he strained an oblique. he'll get the ball against the detroit tigers. if he's able to win, that means a.j. griffin will get the start in game four. w
