What happened: All five hits by Steven Kwan were singles, and his 10th-inning leadoff knock advanced the automatic runner to third. He also drove in a run and drew a walk.

Why it matters: The victory extended the winning streak to six games and lifted the club above .500 for the first time since Aug. 2. Kwan's production helped erase an early five-run deficit.

By the numbers: Over his previous 25 games, Kwan hit .329 with a .417 on-base percentage, a .425 slugging percentage, 10 runs and three steals.

What to watch: Kwan's next start will test whether the multi-hit form carries into another game.
