					| Kawachi has 4 hits tonight in Athletics Win |  
					| The Oakland Athletics beat the San Francisco Giants, 9-3, at AT&T Park. Oakland center fielder Muneo Kawachi had an outstanding performance. He was 4-5 with a home run, a double,  and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 4. The second-place Athletics are 69-61. 
 Jorge Severiano came through for Oakland when he hit a 2-run single in the top of the second. With runners on 2nd and 3rd, he hit a two-strike curveball to center field, staking his team to a 2-0 lead.
 
 "You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Kawachi told the Oakland Today.
