A’s hit three homers to salvage final game of series 3-2

NEW YORK - With youth come mistakes, and the A’s made their share Sunday in New York.

Homers made up for it, though, in Oakland’s 3-2 win over New York,. and Matt Chapman was on both sides of the equation. The rookie was picked off third in the fifth inning, and in his next at bat, he drilled a home run to left to give the A’s the lead for good as they salvaged the final game of the three-game series.

Chapman, who came up in June, has homered in back-to-back games and has four in 20 games.
