					| 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.
