Harden struck out 8, yielded two runs, and pitched for 6 innings to earn the victory (3-0).
Dustin Pedroia hit his 3rd homerun of the season and Jacoby Ellsbury drove in two runs in the loss.
Goat of the Game: Wakefield
Not the outing I expected from Wakefield, but the A’s hit him hard and often to drop him to 3-3.
