Game Preview

The Oakland Athletics will seek to avoid a day-after letdown when they take on the visiting Texas Rangers in a quick turnaround Saturday afternoon.

With the Rangers two runs up and the A’s three outs from a sixth consecutive defeat, Oakland rallied in the bottom of the 10th inning on Friday night, turning deficit into triumph when Brent Rooker bombed a three-run, walk-off home run to cap a four-run uprising in a 9-7 win.

The victory was extra special for Shintaro Fujinami, the Athletics’ prized Japanese import who had been demoted from starter to reliever earlier this season. The right-hander came out of the bullpen to record the last two outs in the top of the 10th, for which he — after the dramatic rally — was rewarded with his first U.S. baseball win.
