Athletics Mow Down Orioles, 11-3
The Oakland Athletics overcame a fine performance by Baltimore right fielder Rudo Garciaparra to defeat the Orioles, 11-3, at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Garciaparra belted 2 home runs. Oakland, at 50-59, holds down third place in the American League West Division.

Oakland used the bat of Muneo Kawachi to get the win. The center fielder hammered a grand slam home run in the top of the third inning to put the Athletics ahead, 5-1. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"It's nice to come out on top today," said Kawachi.
