Twins Suffer 9-3 Road Loss
Oakland right-hander John Wilson pitched his team to victory over the Minnesota Twins at O.co Coliseum. The final score was 9-3. The third-place Athletics now have a win-loss record of 20-17.

Matt Beck had a big 3-run home run for the Athletics in the bottom of the first inning. With Oakland leading 2-0 and runners on 1st and 2nd, he sized up a curveball from two-time All-Star Joel Kull and punished it. The result was his 1st home run of the season, which put the Athletics on top, 5-0.

"We did more than enough to get the win," said Wilson.
