ANAHEIM, Calif., Sept. 25 (UPI) -- Torii Hunter drove in three runs and Jerome Williams delivered solid start Saturday, boosting the Los Angeles Angels to a 4-2 win over Oakland.
Hunter provided an RBI single in the first inning then belted a two-run homer in the sixth to break the game open, helping the Angels keep their post-season hopes alive.

Jemile Weeks went 3-for-5 with a pair of run-scoring singles for the A's.
