Athletics Prevail, 5-4, Over New York
Oakland and New York took Mother Nature's best shot and still managed to complete their ballgame.

The Oakland Athletics did just enough to sneak past the New York Yankees, 5-4, at Yankee Stadium. Oakland pitcher Zach Eflin earned player of the game honors. The winning pitcher was Eflin, now 9-6. He tossed 5 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 2 and fanning 5. Justin R. Miller got the save, his 3rd in 5 chances.

An important at-bat for the Athletics came in the top of the fifth, when right fielder Mark Canha stroked a 2-run home run. That made the score 3-2 in favor of Oakland. For the day, Canha was 1-4 with a home run and was hit by a pitch. He drove in 2 runs and scored once.

"If I go out there and help the team win, that's all you can do," said Eflin.

Oakland is now 63-73, while New York is 73-64.
