While Oakland beat the Royals 16-1, the Angels lost tonight to the Devil Rays 6-4, creating a tie atop the AL West. The Angels have won only 4 of their last 12 games. The best-case scenario for all teams chasing the A's and Angels for the Wild Card spot in the AL is for the Angels to keep losing, because it doesn't look like the A's are going to go on an extended losing streak anytime soon. The Yankees, Indians, Twins, and Blue Jays are all within striking distance, but none of them have been able to make any gains with Oakland running away.
