Cincinnati Loses, 9-8, to Kansas City in 10
The performance of D.J. Trigg proved critical in helping Kansas City beat Cincinnati, 9-8, in 10 innings. The Athletics center fielder was 3 for 4 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk. He scored 3 times. The Athletics now own a record of 75-53.

The decisive blow was delivered by Kien Sa in the bottom of the tenth when he hit a run-scoring double off 28-year old left-handed pitcher Danny Bickel to win the game for Kansas City. The home crowd went nuts.

"That was your kind of game, if you like high drama," said Athletics manager Joe Monagle.
