The Oakland Athletics handed the Kansas City Royals a loss at Kauffman Stadium. The final score was 3-1. Steven Duggar was named player of the game for Oakland. In addition to his 1 single and 1 home run, he scored 1 run and drove in 1. He also added 1 walk. Jordan Montgomery earned the win for Oakland. He lasted 5 innings, allowing 1 earned run on 4 hits, while striking out 2. With the win, he raised his record to 11-9. Aaron Bummer earned his 8th save in 10 chances.

Oakland used the bat of Jose Abreu to get the win. The first baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Athletics ahead, 2-0. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"Can't say enough about our pitching," said Abreu.

With the win, the Athletics have a record of 61-71.
