Athletics Stymie San Diego, Take 5-0 Win
Oakland Athletics starter Bruce Ruffin turned in an exceptional performance against the San Diego Padres at Jack Murphy Stadium, resulting in a Oakland win, 5-0. Ruffin, the winner, moves to 1-0. He threw 6.1 innings of 3-hit ball, while fanning 6 and giving up 1 walk. Oakland has now won 3 in a row.

Oakland used the bat of Greg Vaughn to get the win. The designated hitter hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Athletics ahead, 4-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it did its damage.

Ruffin called the win "a collective effort."
