Game 3 @ Minnesota

Adrian Beltre's 3-run home run off Josh Johnson in the 4th gives Oakland a 4-2 lead, 
but things go downhill from there. The Twins score in four of the next five innings, 
while the A's get just one hit in the final five innings. Pence doubled twice among 
his 3 hits and Ben Zobrist and Shelley Duncan each drove in 3 runs.
