Matt Olson homers twice, A's rally, but fall to Angels in extras

BOX SCORE

OAKLAND -- Angels manager Mike Scioscia had no idea he called upon an American League-record 12 pitchers to win on Labor Day.

"Both teams or us?" he asked. "If I had needed a couple more innings, we would have used probably 13 or 14. Hopefully not too often."

Instead of extending the game Monday, Kole Calhoun delivered with a two-run triple in the 11th inning as the Angels outlasted the Oakland Athletics 11-9.

Fernando Salas (1-0), the ninth Angels pitcher, tossed a perfect 10th for the victory.
