Athletics Get Win, Extend Streak to 8
Colorado got a terrific game from left fielder Juan Gonzalez. It wasn't enough, though, to prevent the team from falling to Oakland, 6-5. Gonzalez was the player of the game despite being on the losing side. He was 3 for 4 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Jason Bere notched his 14th save in 19 chances. The wins continue to add up for Oakland, with the latest making it 8 in a row.

Oakland needed the clutch hitting of Geronimo Pena to notch the win. The second baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh inning to put the Athletics on top, 6-4. For the game, Pena had 1 home run and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

"We're stringing together some nice wins," said Oakland manager Jim B.
