Ichiro was hitless after three at-bats. Then, in the seventh, he grounded a ball back up he middle past Oakland Athletics pitcher TJ Mathews, who stabbed at it with his glove, and shortstop Miguel Tejada for a single.

She was watching for foul balls during batting practice while her husband, Joe, sat next to her using a camera she'd received as a gift.
