Todd Stottlemyre could take little solace in pitching a good game. The fact is his Oakland Athletics lost, dropping a 2-1 decision to the Baltimore Orioles at Memorial Stadium. Steve Avery picked up the win, improving his season record to 8-9. He struck out 3 in 5.1 innings. Roger McDowell notched his 19th save in 25 chances.

Making an impact for Baltimore was designated hitter Matt Franco. He drilled a run-scoring double in the bottom of the fifth. For the game, Franco went 1 for 3 with a double.

"We'll relax tonight and enjoy this win," said Franco.

The win boosts the Orioles to 50-70. The loss puts the Athletics at 39-80.
