Athletics Win at Montreal, 4-1
Oakland rode a good effort from starter Joe Cilley to beat the Montreal Expos at Stade Olympique. The final score was 4-1. Cilley, the winner, moves to 11-11. He threw 6 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 9 and giving up 2 walks. Ed Skov earned his 16th save in 17 chances.

It could have been a different outcome for Oakland, had it not been for Vince Knappenberger, the 30-year old catcher . Knappenberger contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the fourth inning to put Oakland up, 2-0.

In comments to the Oakland Observer, Knappenberger admitted he's been told to improve his work habits. "But," he said, "I know when to take it to another gear."

The Athletics improve their record to 66-94 with the win over Montreal.
