The home crowd had a good time watching the Boston Red Sox and Oakland Athletics get after it.

The Oakland Athletics powered past the Boston Red Sox, 9-2, at O.co Coliseum. Ismael Díaz provided some of the pop. He went 3-4 with 2 doubles and a walk. He drove in 5 runs and scored once. The 4th-place Athletics sport a record of 65-80.

With Oakland leading 2-1 in the bottom of the fifth, Díaz hit a run-scoring single off Boston hurler Phil Christopher. It was the 63rd hit of the season for Díaz and put his team ahead, 3-1.

"We took it on the chin tonight," said losing manager Alvin Morman.
