Multi-HR Day for Palmeiro as Dodgers Overpower Athletics, 11-2
The Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Oakland Athletics, 11-2, at Oakland Coliseum. Los Angeles first baseman Rafael Palmeiro earned player of the game honors with an outstanding performance. He hit 2 home runs. He drove in 8 runs and scored twice. Charles Nagy went 6.1 innings for Los Angeles to pick up the win. The right-hander was charged with 1 earned run. He scattered 6 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 2. His record improves to 6-15. The Dodgers sit in third place in the United League West Division with a record of 69-74.

It could have been a different outcome for Los Angeles, had it not been for Ron Jones, the 32-year old left fielder . Jones contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the third inning to put Los Angeles up, 3-0.

"We had a nice day," said Los Angeles skipper Andrew Cole.
