OAKLAND -- Veteran Jed Lowrie enjoyed a three-hit day, while rookie teammates Bruce Maxwell and Jaycob Brugman combined for three RBIs to help the A's secure a 7-4 series-winning victory over the White Sox behind Sonny Gray on Wednesday afternoon at Oakland Coliseum.
Gray was excellent, his lone mistake hit for a two-run homer by Matt Davidson in the fifth. The right-hander yielded just two other hits in six innings, striking out five and walking two in the 98-pitch outing to finish the first half with a 4.
