Athletics Rally Past Cubs to Claim 1-0 Series Lead
The Oakland Athletics powered past the visiting Chicago Cubs, 7-6, in the opener of the World Series at Oakland Coliseum 1969 today. Oakland center fielder Stan Javier went 2 for 3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3, to lead the charge. The Athletics now lead the series 1-0.

Ray Lankford was the walk-off hero for Oakland. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Athletics designated hitter hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"It feels good to get this one," Javier told the Oakland Daily.

The next game is set to be played tomorrow at Oakland Coliseum 1969 in Oakland.
