San Francisco Giants vs. Oakland A's: A's Give Dads a Gift on Father's Day

On a sunny, 72-degree day in Oakland, the A's would give their Dads a great Father's day gift in front of another sellout crowd in Oakland with a come from behind 2-1 win against the San Francisco Giants.

The A's extended their winning streak to five games, their longest since the 2010 season.

A's backup catcher Landon Powell hit his first home run of the season in the bottom of the eighth off Jeremy Affeldt, a solo shot to left field on a 2-1 pitch giving the A's a 2-1 lead. The home run by Powell would be all the A's needed.

The A's new second basemen Jemile Weeks continued his exciting ways, going 3-4 and flashed the leather as well playing a solid second base saving a run in the top of the third with a diving stop throwing out Aubrey Huff at first.

The conclusion of "The Battle of The Bay" faced off the Giant's Matt Cain against Trevor Cahill of the A's.

The Giants would draw first blood in the top of the second on a double down the left field line scoring Nate Schierholtz from first base following a walk.

Trevor Cahill started the season going 6-0, but since then the A's ace has not lived up to that billing, losing five of his last seven starts.

Today would be a different story with Cahill giving up one run, scattering five hits over eight innings with seven strikeouts, giving him his first win since May 9th.

Cain was on his game as well, allowing one run on three hits and five strikeouts. Jeremy Affeldt would be credited with the loss.

The Giants threatened again with two outs in the top of the third with a Manny Burriss single to left center field, followed by a single by Pablo Sandoval that was scorched down the first base line, moving Burriss to third. Aubrey Huff hit another hot shot that looked like it would get through, but second baseman Jemile Weeks made his diving stab and threw out Huff.

Matt Cain gave up a leadoff single to Jemile Weeks to start the game, but didn't allow another batter—except for a catcher's interference—to reach base until the bottom of the sixth. Weeks got to Cain once again smacking a double to deep left. Cliff Pennington grounded out to second base moving weeks to third.

Coco Crisp evened the game with an RBI single to right field.

Jeremy Affeldt started the bottom of the eighth for the Giants in place of Cain.

Brian Fuentes entered the game in the top of the ninth, retiring all three Giant's batters he faced,  recording his 12th save of the season.
