Freddy Garcia remains undefeated, while Lefty Grove can't get himself a victory. Bret Boone did the brunt of the damage with 2 two-run homers, David Bell continues his hot hitting going 2-for-4, with a two-run double. The Philadelphia A's overall has been a huge disappointment up to this point, as they sit alone in last place.
