The Oakland Athletics topped the Detroit Tigers, 8-2, at Comerica Park. Oakland first baseman Kevin Burns was a spark plug for the offense. He slugged 2 home runs, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Daryl Henderson, the winning pitcher, improved to 4-3. He pitched 7.1 innings, giving up 8 hits and 2 runs, while striking out 3 and walking 3. Oakland is second in the AL West Division with a record of 60-50.

Oakland used the hitting of Chone Figgins to pick up the win. The left fielder clubbed a 3-run home run in the top of the third inning to put the Athletics on top, 3-2. For the game, Figgins had 1 home run and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

Said losing manager Brian Boyd: "We need to play with more of an edge."
