Going the route for the ninth time this season, Matt Keough tossed a six-hitter and halted the A's five-game losing streak with a 4-1 victory over the Red Sox. Mike Davis figured in three of the A's runs: he singled and eventually scored on a balk by Mike Torrez in the second, and he homered with a man aboard in the sixth. [The Sporting News]
