Athletics Get Better of Rays, 4-0
The home crowd had a good time watching the Tampa Bay Rays and Oakland Athletics get after it.

Oakland Athletics starter Chief Bender pitched well against the Tampa Bay Rays at O.co Coliseum, leading his team to a win, 4-0. Bender, now 12-7, was the winner. In 8 innings, he gave up 4 hits, while striking out 4, walking 5, and allowing no runs.

The game still hung in the balance with two out in the top of the eighth inning. Bender, however, wiggled out of a jam. With the bases loaded and Tampa Bay trailing 3-0, Bender retired Brandon Lowe, who grounded out.

The Athletics go to 65-48, putting them first in the American League Western Division.
