					| Athletics Lose to Padres, 4-2 |  
					| The San Diego Padres and Oakland Athletics played an exciting game. 
 The San Diego Padres picked up a win at Petco Park, knocking off the Oakland Athletics, 4-2. On the mound for San Diego was left-hander Matt Wheeler, who played a pivotal role in the win. San Diego reliever Marshall Barron picked up the win, upping his record to 2-2. Germano Nunes shouldered the loss. Getting the save was Arturo Diaz, his 28th.
 
 Had Manny Vergara not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 2nd and 3rd, Vergara hit a 2-run single. That made the score 4-2, in favor of the Padres.
 
 "We made a couple of mistakes," said Oakland skipper Daryl S. Oakland, "and it cost us."
 
 With the win, the Padres improved to 64-62.
