Games Notes

Gil Heredia, A's quiet the Yankees 2-0.

Heredia delivers a masterful performance, helping Oakland shutout New York for the 1st time at home in 1998. Heredia goes 7 2/3 innings, allowing 5 hits while striking out 5. T.J. Mathews and Bill Taylor finish the shutout.

David Cone strikes out 10 after seeming off his game following a 2+ hour rain delay. The A's scratch out a 1st inning run on a pair of singles and a groundout by Matt Stairs. Ryan Christenson later adds a solo HR off Mike Stanton in the 8th.
