Athletics Drop Twins, 6-5
A 3-RBI performance from Manuel Margot, who finished 3rd in the NL in triples with 8 in 2022, helped the Oakland Athletics beat the Minnesota Twins, 6-5. Tommy Meyers notched his 6th save in 8 chances. Oakland is 26-35 and Minnesota, with the loss, 29-31.

Margot had a game-changing home run in the bottom of the seventh. On a 0-1 fastball from Luis Romano, he banged a 3-run home run to center, giving the Athletics a 6-3 lead. It was the 4th home run of the year for Margot.

"Every time you put a 'W' on the board is always good," said Margot.
