Khris Davis homers twice, including game-winner to lift A's

OAKLAND, Calif. -- Khris Davis would enjoy nothing more than leading the big leagues in home runs and carrying the Oakland Athletics on a deep postseason run.

"It would be a nice achievement but first and foremost I want to get deep in the playoffs and get there," he said. "That means a lot more."

For now, he is slugging the A's one step closer to a playoff berth.

Davis hit his second homer of the night leading off the bottom of the 10th inning for his career-high and majors-leading 45th, sending the Oakland Athletics past the Minnesota Twins 7-6 on Friday night.
