It took 10 innings, but the Oakland Athletics were able to beat the Toronto Blue Jays, 9-6, at SkyDome. Ryan Zimmerman provided some offensive muscle for Oakland. He went 2 for 5 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 3 and driving in 3. The winner was Eddy Santana in relief. His record improves to 4-1. Jose Rodriguez took the loss. With the win over Toronto, the Athletics improved to 13-22.

Oakland needed the clutch hitting of Joe Thurston to notch the win. The second baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Athletics on top, 9-6. For the game, Thurston had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We didn't let this one get away," said Thurston.
