The Oakland Athletics overcame a fourteen-year span without postseason success by rallying past the Chicago White Sox 6-4 in the decisive third game. A critical hit came in the fifth inning when Chad Pinder delivered a two-run single that put Oakland ahead. The rally was aided significantly by a series of costly walks issued by the Chicago relief pitchers.
