Oakland starter Dean Thomas pitched effectively against the Detroit Tigers at Comerica Park. The right-hander led his team to a win, 9-4. Thomas, now 8-5, was the winner. In 8.1 innings, he gave up 8 hits, while striking out 6, walking 0, and allowing 4 runs. The Athletics have a one-game lead in the American League West Division.

Oakland used a big swing from Alex Moncivaiz to get the win. The center fielder walloped a 3-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Athletics up, 4-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it changed the outcome.

"Dean did a really nice job of taking the ball and giving us a chance to win the game," said Oakland manager Jon Pearson.
