The Halos (65-64) will try to snap a three-game losing streak when Tyler Skaggs (Swaggy),(1-4, 3.96 ERA) will take the mound. He will be matched up with Brad Peacock (10-2, 3.21 ERA). The Halos are now a game and a half out of the final Wild-Card spot in the American League, behind the Minnesota Twins.
