Oakland pitcher David Saldana did his part in helping his team beat the Tampa Bay Rays, 6-2. The left-hander kept opposing batters in check throughout the game. The Athletics go to 59-89 with the win.

Oakland relied on the hitting of Jerome Bathgate to pick up the win. The third baseman clubbed a 2-run single in the top of the first inning to put the Athletics on top, 3-0. For the game, Bathgate had 1 home run and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"It's easier to pitch when you get run support," said Saldana.
