Sosa Strong In A's Win

Jorge Sosa(1-0) and Darren Oliver(4-3) locked horns in a pitcher's duel with Sosa and the Oakland A's coming out on top of the Montreal Expos 2 to 0. Montreal fell behind quickly as the Oakland offense came through in the first inning when they tallied 2 runs on 3 hits. The early run support proved sufficient for Sosa and Oakland. That was all the run support Sosa required. After the 1st inning, neither team was able to score. Sosa got help from Jason Isringhausen who earned his 10th save. Oakland, who had been struggling lately, moved their record to 22-19.
