Jorge Posada made an impact in the 12-5 Oakland win over Baltimore. Posada, who signed a 3-year contract worth $17,850,000 on 11/20/2003, was 2 for 3 with a double, a walk, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 4. Alex Vega, the winning pitcher, is now 1-0. He went 5.2 innings, allowing 5 runs on 6 hits, while fanning 5 and walking 3. The Athletics, now 3-0, have stormed out of the gates.

Jose Guillen had a key at-bat with one out in the top of the seventh for Oakland. With the bases loaded and the Athletics leading 6-5, he hit a sacrifice fly.

"Our guys are never satisfied," said Oakland manager Bob C.
