Athletics Rally to Win
The Athletics grabbed a win, 9-5, at Globe Life Park in Arlington, overcoming a fine effort from Texas pitcher Nick Jenkins. Jenkins went 5.2 innings and allowed 4 runs. Oakland reliever Matt Ortiz picked up the win. Mike Poole took the loss for Texas. The Athletics, at 24-17, sit in second place in the American League West Division.

Steve Simon drove in one run for Oakland. The 29-year old right fielder had a key at-bat in the top of the ninth. With no one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Mike Poole. It was his 6th RBI of the season.

"I like the roll we're on," said Oakland manager Jon Pearson.
