The Philadelphia Athletics grabbed a win, 8-5, over the Atlantic City Aces at The Sandcastle. Philadelphia second baseman Toby Harrah went 3 for 5 with a triple and a double. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The winning pitcher was Aurelio Serrano. His record is now 7-7. The left-hander went 7.2 innings, allowing 5 runs on 8 hits for the Athletics. José Martínez collected his 21st save.

The Athletics benefited from an error in the top of the fifth inning. Philadelphia was leading 3-2 when Ed Kirkpatrick hit a 2-run single that was misplayed. It put Philadelphia in front, 5-2.

"I hate to be the fly in the ointment," said Kirkpatrick, "but we could've played better."

The Athletics improve their record to 42-60 with the win over Atlantic City.
