40's defeated the Toronto Scrub AL 1 9 to 4 at Rogers Centre.

Toronto for the game, 14 hits to 5.  
 
The win went to Zack Greinke(4-0) who allowed 4 runs in 8 innings. The loss

At Fenway Park the Boston Stranglers were battered 11 to 5 by the Oakland
Scrub AL 2.
 
Mark Loretta led the offense for Oakland.  He doubled in the 1st inning,
doubled plating all three baserunners in the 3rd inning and doubled plating a
run in the 7th inning.  Both teams ended up with 15 hits on the afternoon.
 
Greg Maddux(1-3) got credit for the victory, pitching 7 and 2/3 innings and
allowing 5 runs. Joe Saunders(1-2) was given the loss.  He was not very
effective, surrendering 7 runs in 2 and 1/3 innings.
