With right fielder Zach Ducas leading the charge, the Mesa (OAK) Athletics defeated the Glendale Dodgers, 8-3, at Scottsdale Stadium.

In the top of the first, with the game still scoreless, Ducas hit a run-scoring single to put his team in the lead.

"I really like what we did out there today," Ducas said after the game.
