who ended the oakland a's winning streak in 2002
2002 Oakland Athletics season The new-look Athletics experienced a bumpy start to the 2002 regular season. The team followed a respectable 15-10 start with an abysmal 5-16 run; at the end of their slump, on May 23, the team's record stood at 20-26. From this point forward, the Athletics' fortunes improved significantly. In a prelude to the team's famous late-season winning streak, the Athletics went 16-1 from June 6 to June 24. The surge propelled the club within two games of first place. For now, this was as close as the team would get; a prolonged funk saw the A's play roughly .500 baseball for the next month-and-a-half. This period ended with an unremarkable 2-1 loss to the Toronto Blue Jays on August 12.
2016 Oakland Raiders season The 2016 Oakland Raiders season was the 57th overall of the Oakland Raiders franchise, the franchise's 47th season in the National Football League, their 23th season since their return to Oakland, and the second under head coach Jack Del Rio. The Raiders improved on a 7–9 campaign in 2015 and finished with a winning record for the first time since 2002, finishing the regular season with a 12–4 record.
