Athletics Drop Royals, 2-1
The Mesa (OAK) Athletics had to overcome a fine performance from Surprise (KC) pitcher Colton Cross to grab a 2-1 win at Surprise Stadium. Cross allowed 2 runs over 5.1 innings. The save was credited to Ryan Burkhardt, his 14th. The last-place Royals have lost 5 straight games.

Mesa (OAK) used a well-timed hit by Zach Wadas to capture the win. The first baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Athletics ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"If you pitch well, you give yourself some opportunities," said Mesa (OAK) manager Jeff Smith.
