Athletics Earn Late 2-1 Win
The Oakland (Rk+) Athletics wiggled past the Grand Junction Rockies, 2-1, in 10 innings at Ballpark of League City. The win was highlighted by the performance of Oakland (Rk+) pitcher Pedro Sambrano. The Athletics go to 37-38, putting them first in the West.

The Athletics got a clutch hit from designated hitter Mario Perales. In the bottom of the tenth, he delivered a run-scoring single to win the game for the Athletics.

During his postgame press conference, Athletics manager Carlos Lugo told reporters that he expected a tight game from the get-go. "This had the potential to go down to the wire, and it certainly didn't disappoint," he said, later quipping, "it might've been a little less nerve-racking if I had been watching the game from my couch!"
