Hunter Helps Los Angeles Cruise to 10-3 Win
The Los Angeles Dodgers downed the Oakland Athletics, 10-3, at Dodger Stadium. The Dodgers were led by Torii Hunter, who captured player of the game honors. He went 3-4 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. Los Angeles starter Bartolo Colon was credited with the win after throwing 115 pitches over 9 innings. His record now stands at 12-9. The Dodgers sit in 5th place in the United League West Division with a record of 52-61.

The Dodgers beat the Athletics in part due to timely hitting. Case in point: the two-out home run Bill Spiers produced in the bottom of the second. Batting against Oakland pitcher Jaret Wright, Spiers gave his team a 3-0 lead when he hit a 3-run home run.

"Feels good to get the job done," Spiers said after the game.
