Game One: TEX 4, OAK 2 (11 innings)
Oakland stikes early, scoring two off Matt Harrison and the Rangers, courtesy of a Scott Hattieberg solo homer and a double off the wall by Eric Chavez, who scores on a sac fly. But Texas answers off Oakland starter Cory Lidle, as Mike Napoli hits his second homer and Josh Harrison has an RBI single. The 2-2 game remains that way from the sixth inning on, until the top of the 11th. In that inning, Hamilton just beats a throw home on a scratch single from Adrian Beltre for the game winner.
Game Two: OAK 5, TEX 1
Oakland's Olmedo Saenz goes deep twice. |
Game Three: OAK 6, TEX 4
This one isn't as close as the score indicates. Oakland's Tim Hudson (1-1) holds Texas to one run before tiring in the eighth and giving up Hamilton's third homer. Oakland C Ramon Hernandez has a nice day, going three for four and driving in three with RBI singles. CJ Wilson (0-2) again struggles for Texas, giving up four runs in five innings of work.
