Tennessee Sent Home with 4-0 Loss
The Oakland Raiders beat the Tennessee Titans, 4-0, at The Coliseum. Starting pitcher Will Ritchey was a big reason why. He held his opponent in check all game. Tennessee drops to 14-12.

Oakland relied on the bat of Danny Castillo to get the win. The right fielder ripped a 2-run triple in the top of the third inning to put the Raiders ahead, 2-0. For the game, Castillo had 1 double and 1 triple in 4 at-bats.

"I made good pitches, kept the ball out of the middle of the plate for the most part," said Ritchey.
