Athletics Rally to Nose Past Detroit
The Detroit Tigers could not turn a fine performance from pitcher Sandy Alcantara into a win. Instead, the Oakland Athletics prevailed, 2-1. Alcantara threw 6.2 innings of 5-hit ball. The win puts Oakland at 78-66 this season.

Oakland got a knockout punch from Elehuris Montero. The first baseman hammered a solo home run in the bottom of the ninth inning to win the game. It might've been his only hit, but it decided the outcome.

"It's great when the crowd gets into it," Montero said.
