Athletics Stay Hot, Beat Rangers, 8-4
A nice crowd turned out for a clash between the Oakland Athletics and Texas Rangers.

Getting a good performance from center fielder Fernando Perez, the Oakland Athletics defeated the Texas Rangers, 8-4. Perez hit 2 home runs. He drove in 3 runs and scored twice for the Athletics. Conrad Orman got the win, improving to 9-11. He pitched 6 innings, giving up 8 hits and 3 runs, while striking out 3 and walking 0.

The Rangers had been locked in a 2-2 tie with the Athletics going into the top of the fourth inning. That changed quickly when the 32-year old catcher Jeremy Brown came to the plate. Brown hit a 2-run home run on a 2-2 fastball from Texas hurler Paul Maholm. It was Brown's 1st home run of the year.

"We've been playing some good baseball," Perez told the Oakland Daily. "We're aggressive and focused on what we're going to do on the field and getting it done."

Oakland has now won 6 games in a row.
