Colavito Hits Two Homers as A's Beat Angels 7-4
Rock Colavito slugged his seventh and eighth homers of the year to spark the Oakland A's to a 7-4 victory over the Los Angeles Angels. Pena avoided his bubble gum routine as Colavito provided the power, also contributing a two-run shot in the eighth with Jim Gentile aboard. The win left Oakland within a half game of the Yankees while Chicago, Cleveland, and Baltimore won their AL games.
