Tejada Lifts Athletics to 18-7 Win
Miguel Tejada was a major contributor to the 18-7 Philadelphia win over Minnesota. The Athletics shortstop went 3 for 6 with a home run and 2 singles. He scored 2 times and drove in 5. The winning pitcher was Lefty Grove. He tossed 92 pitches over 6 innings, allowing 5 runs on 13 hits. The Athletics, now 6-0, have stormed out of the gates.

One of the Philadelphia stars provided one of his team's biggest hits. It happened in the top of the eighth with one out. Al Simmons, who finished 2nd in the AL in extra base hits with 78 in 1903, hit a 2-run single on a 1-0 curveball to put the Athletics up, 8-5. For the game, the left fielder was 3-6 with a double and 2 singles. He drove in 4 runs and scored once.

"There's a lot of good karma around our club," said winning manager Charles Wolfson.
