Chris Carter, Brandon Moss the Hot Bats as Red Sox, A’s Wrap Up Series in Oakland

Editor's note: The temperature gauge is a Bill James-created statistic that measures how hot or cold hitters are. We will spotlight Red Sox and opposing team temperatures on game days.

The Red Sox' bats have been all but silent in their swing through the West Coast, but the A's have had no trouble mounting offense night after night.

Coming off a 7-1 win over Boston on Saturday evening, the A's bring a 27-3 run advantage into Sunday's series finale against the Red Sox.

Brandon Moss (4-for-5 with home run, four RBIs Saturday night) and Chris Carter (1-for-3 with a home run) have been leading the way for the A's. Oakland also got solid production Saturday night from Coco Crisp, who had three hits — including a home run.
