Oakland right fielder Diego Vega thrice sent eager fans scurrying to catch a souvenir, helping lead the Oakland to a 12-6 win over Calgary. "Hey, the three homers were great, but I'm just trying to help my ballclub," Vega said later. "I'm not going out there thinking I need another home run."

Diego Vega walked in the 2nd, walked in the 4th, hit a two-run home run off Randy Latendresse in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Danny Araiza in the 7th and hit a GRAND SLAM off Scott Howarth in the 9th.
