The A's throttled Kansas City 8-0, despite missing star players Mark McGwire and Rickey Henderson due to REALLY unfortunate injury rolling. Bartolo Colon rolled through the Royals, allowing 4 baserunners over 7 innings of strong work. Grienke honestly did ok scattering hitters with one exception: a devestating Cespedes grand slam in the fourth inning that blew the game open. Cespedes finished with a HR, double, 2 runs scored and the four RBIs from his grand salami.
