Athletics Slap 3-2 Loss on Twins
Oakland rode a good effort from starter Javy Garza to beat the Minnesota Twins at Joe Mauer Field. The final score was 3-2. Garza went 8 innings to notch the win. He scattered 6 hits, walked 3, and struck out 7. His record improves to 3-1. At 18-20, the Athletics are currently third in the American League West.

Oakland used the clutch hitting of Johnson Minutillo to capture the win. The center fielder drilled a run-scoring double in the top of the seventh inning to give the Athletics the lead, 3-2. For the game, Minutillo had 2 singles and 1 double in 5 at-bats.

"It's a mindset," said Garza. "Just trying to do your job, trying to be consistent."
