  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Minnesota Twins (22-17) 0 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 2 7 1

Athletics Take Down Twins, 3-2
The Oakland Athletics had to overcome a good performance from Minnesota pitcher Mike Moon to claim a 3-2 win at O.co Coliseum. Moon went 6 innings and allowed 2 runs. Mike Pedigo picked up the save, his 7th. The win puts the Athletics at 20-20, while the Twins drop to 22-17.

Had Sakae Kasahara not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Kasahara hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Athletics.

After the game, Oakland manager Daryl S. Oakland applauded the team's effort. "They busted their humps out there," he said.
