Games, Games, Games

A's 16, Giants 0

The A's whupped up on the Giants, 16-0, behind a seven-inning effort by Rich Harden. Nick Swisher homered twice, and six players had three or more hits, including a 4-6 outing by SS Bobby Crosby. The game marked a three-game sweep of the Giants by the A's. Oakland passed Seattle for third place in the AL West Saturday following a Seattle loss to the Padres.

Padres 5, Seattle 4

Xavier Nady (1) and Damien Jackson (2) combined for three home runs in a surprisingly close game in which Woody Williams surrendered four runs in the seventh, but the Padres' bullpen held on in the eighth, when Jackson's solo homer provided the difference. The Padres are 6-4 in the last ten games.

The Pads disabled 1B Phil Nevin with a strained muscle, retroactive to Tuesday. San Diego called up OF Ben Johnson from AAA Portland to replace him.

Recap

Cubs 2, White Sox 0

The Cubs finally got Mark Prior back, and he responded by pitching the kind of dominating game he's hired for, keeping the White Sox to only one hit with three strikeouts over six innings. Corey Patterson homered in the game.

The Cubs are 38-36, 8.5 games back of the first-place Cards in the NL Central.
