Athletics Solve Expos, 5-2
Oakland and Montreal duked it out at Olympic Stadium and the Athletics came out victorious.

The Oakland Athletics got a stellar performance from pitcher Calvin Jones, who handcuffed the Montreal offense en route to a 5-2 win at Olympic Stadium. The winning pitcher was Jones, now 2-0. He tossed 5 innings of 3-hit ball, while walking 4 and fanning 2. Toby Borland got the save, his 4th in 9 chances.

Oakland used the timely hitting of Gene Kingsale to capture the win. The left fielder stroked a bases-clearing double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Athletics on top, 5-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but he made it count.

"You've got to ride the highs and the lows in baseball in order to succeed," Jones told the Oakland Gazette. "Right now I'm feeling good, but that don't mean squat for tomorrow."

Oakland now owns a record of 49-81.
