Swanson Lifts Athletics to 8-7 Win
Behind the hitting of <Joe Swanson:player#8420>, the <New Jersey Athletics:team#80> stopped the <Ontario Blue Pirates:team#77>, 8-7. Swanson was 4-5 with a double and 3 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once for the Athletics. Ontario has now lost 4 consecutive games.

Had <Ron Wilson:player#10967> not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 3rd, Wilson hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 8-7, in favor of the Athletics.

"We need to string a few more wins like this one together," said Wilson.
