Ten in Oakland
The Orioles and Athletics end nine innings tied at five. Kurt Suzuki and Nick Markakis are the hitting stars so far. Suzuki hit a two-run homer and scored twice. Markakis knocked out three hits and scored a run.
Update: Mark Ellis hits a walk off solo shot in the bottom of the tenth and the Athletics sweep the Orioles.

The box score on CBS shows Frank Thomas made his first appearance at first since 2004. Sadly, this doesn't seem to be the case. I wonder if he even packs a glove anymore?
1B for the Big Hurt? it should say RF. he came in to pinch hit for right fielder R. Sweeney who started the game in CF, but unfortunately he never made it in on defense since the A's pinch ran for him after he reached base beating out what looked like it would be a ground ball double play. this is just a week after he hit a triple! before u know it, the A's will be sending the Big Hurt in for pinch running.
