Athletics Squelch Padres Offense in Shutout Win
Oakland first baseman John Olerud made his presence felt in the 5-0 Athletics triumph over the San Diego Padres. Olerud went 3-4 with a home run and a double. He scored 3 times. Oakland is now riding a 3-game win streak.

Oakland used the timely hitting of Junior Felix to capture the win. The right fielder socked a 3-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Athletics ahead, 3-0. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Felix. "And not try to do too much."
