Oakland 6-5 Losers to Rays
Oakland Coliseum was the site of an exciting ballgame between the Tampa Bay Rays and Oakland Athletics.

Tampa Bay beat Oakland at Oakland Coliseum, eking out a 6-5 win. The triumph was primarily due to shortstop Kevin Howard. He was 1 for 3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Tampa Bay reliever Henry Morales was the winner. His record is now 6-2. Ken Stone took the loss.

Tampa Bay took a 4-3 lead on Howard's 6th home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which he hit off Ken Stone in the top of the sixth, propelled Tampa Bay to the win.

"Honestly, I'm not frustrated," said Oakland manager Shane Smith. "The effort was great."

The Rays are now 70-56.
