Athletics Win 4-3 Walk-Off
The Oakland Athletics did just enough to secure a 4-3 victory over the Arizona Diamondbacks at Oakland Coliseum. Nobody did more than pitcher Bobby M Jones, who captured player of the game honors. Jones went the distance for Oakland. He gave up 3 earned runs on 6 hits. The last-place Athletics raised their record to 55-70.

The clutch at-bat came in the bottom of the ninth inning, when Oakland first baseman John Olerud, facing Danny Patterson, had a run-scoring walk. It gave the Athletics the 4-3 win.

"I found a nice groove out there," said Jones.
