Senators Stumble, Lose to Athletics
The Oakland Athletics beat the Washington Senators, 12-4, at RFK Stadium. Oakland catcher Benito Santiago earned player of the game honors with an outstanding performance. He was 2-3 with 2 doubles and 2 walks. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Jamie Moyer was the winner. Over 5.1 innings, he allowed 3 runs on 7 hits, with 2 walks and 5 strikeouts. William VanLandingham earned the save, his 1st, for the Athletics.

Oakland used the timely hitting of Geronimo Pena to seize the win. The second baseman stroked a 2-run single in the top of the fourth inning to put the Athletics on top, 5-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"The boys came out and just played their butts off," said Oakland manager Jim B.

Oakland is 12-21 and Washington, with the loss, 23-10.
