Athletics Top White Sox in Extras, 6-3
The Kansas City Athletics beat the Chicago White Sox by a score of 6-3. Kansas City right fielder Seika Higashi deserved the lion's share of the credit. Higashi went 3-6 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the Athletics. Kansas City has 3 straight wins, Chicago 3 straight losses.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the tenth. With two out, Higashi hit a fastball from Mark Zeckman for a 3-run home run. The Athletics, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"Always feels extra good winning this kind of game," said Higashi.
