Matz Sensational for Roses
Baron's Ballyard was the site of a true pitchers' duel.

Oakland took on Chicago in a contest which featured a pitchers' duel. Steve Matz, in particular, was fantastic. The Oakland left-hander helped his team snag the win, 2-0. The triumph puts Oakland at 76-66 for the season.

Matz, who dominated for Oakland, earned the victory to move to 10-5. He was in control the whole game, scattering 2 hits over 7 innings, while striking out 5. Chicago batters could never bunch up enough hits to produce a rally.

"We took home the win," said Matz. "What's not to like?"
