Soderstrom Homers Twice in 6-5 Athletics Win
In a tight contest at Great American Ball Park, the Oakland Athletics edged the Cincinnati Reds by the score of 6-5. Oakland catcher Tyler Soderstrom, who blasted 2 home runs, was a key contributor. Earning the save was Zach Jackson. He's now cashed in 29 of 32 save opportunities. Oakland now sits at 62-71, while Cincinnati falls to 61-74.

It could have been a different outcome for Oakland, had it not been for Curtis Mead, the 23-year old third baseman . Mead contributed a 2-run single in the top of the sixth inning to put Oakland up, 5-4.

"We found a way to get it done," Mead said.
