Henderson Helps Athletics Run Win Streak to 6
The Oakland Athletics beat the Colorado Rockies, 10-5, at Mile High Stadium. Oakland designated hitter Rickey Henderson earned player of the game honors with an outstanding performance. He went 2-5 with 2 home runs, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 4. Jeff C D'Amico was the winning pitcher. Over 7.1 innings, he allowed 5 runs on 7 hits, with 1 walk and 2 strikeouts. The 4th-place Athletics now have a 6-game winning streak.

Oakland took a 6-4 lead on John Olerud's 24th home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Olerud hit in the top of the seventh, left Colorado pitcher Francisco Oliveras visibly frustrated.

"This team is real focused right now," said Oakland manager Jim B.
