Kennedy (4-5) held the A's to one run on four hits over six innings in a winning effort Thursday, striking out four and walking one. That's two one-run outings in a row for Kennedy, and he appears to be turning things around after a simply brutal start to the season. However, he did give up a solo homer for his only run Thursday, and long balls have been a problem for Kennedy, as he's given up 14 of them now in 12 starts. Still, he's become a playable fantasy starter again and should be rolled out Wednesday in San Francisco, as AT&T Park has smothered power hitters all year long.
