Sun, 30 August, 9:00AM, at Acton - Jones Field (Game 1 of DH)
Orioles 4, Athletics 3
The O's punched their playoff ticket with a hard fought 4-3 win, led by Mike Stasio who pitched a complete game 3-hitter. Offensively, the hero of the game was Jose De Los Santos, who went 4 for 4: with the Orioles down 3-2 in the 5th, Jordan Krall led off with a double before De Los Santos crushed a HR to right-center, staking the O's to a 1-run lead which they would not relinquish.
For the A's, Andrew Billig hit a solo home run and made a phenomenal catch in center field, robbing Krall of another extra base hit. |
