Athletics Down Devil Rays, 10-2
The Oakland Athletics beat the Tampa Bay Devil Rays by a score of 10-2. Oakland left fielder J D Drew deserved the lion's share of the credit. Drew went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 3 for the Athletics. Chris Carpenter earned the win to go to 11-13. He allowed 2 runs on 7 hits, with 1 walk and 5 strikeouts in 6 innings of work. Rich Garces, credited with the save, is now 1 for 1 in save opportunities.

Drew made an early impact for Oakland when he stroked his 23rd home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which came in the bottom of the third, put the Athletics on top, 3-1.

"If you pitch well, you give yourself some opportunities," said Oakland manager Oakland GM.

Oakland raised its record to 77-60 with the win.
