The Oakland Athletics defeated the Los Angeles Dodgers, 5-3, in United League action at Oakland Coliseum, with Oakland pitcher Bobby M Jones named player of the game. The last-place Athletics raised their record to 59-76.

John Olerud was 3 for 4 with 3 singles and a walk for Oakland. The former first round draft pick had a key at-bat in the bottom of the second. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring walk off Roger Clemens. It was his 78th walk of the season.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Olerud.
