3-2!

In an almost, albeit, carbon-copy of last night's game.  The A's score just enough to cruise to a victory, this time on the back of their Starter Scott Kazmir.  Once again, Clippard had to do the old fashioned 2 inning save as there are no reliable relievers on this team, save him..pun intended.
