Gio Gonzalez surrendered two runs over six innings and struck out 10 in Oakland's 8-4 win over Kansas City on Thursday. A's pitchers fanned 16 in all, with Joey Devine striking out the side in the seventh after replacing Gonzalez. Gonzalez wasn't efficient in this one, throwing 109 pitches to get 18 outs, but he did get plenty of run support for once. The win was his first since May 17. He's 6-5 with a 2.69 ERA.
