The performance of Eddie Joost proved critical in helping Oakland beat New York, 10-8. The Athletics shortstop was 2 for 2 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. Oakland has now won 3 in a row.

In the bottom of the 1st, Oakland took the lead on a 2-run single by Jimmie Foxx. At the time, the Athletics were trailing 1-0, but Foxx's hit with two outs against New York pitcher Dwight Gooden put them in front, 2-1.

"This game had a little bit of everything," said Joost.
