Oakland gives long-term extensions to Bob Melvin, Billy Beane

The Oakland Athletics, who pulled off perhaps the most surprising run to the playoffs this season, rewarded manager Bob Melvin, executive vice president Billy Beane and general manager David Forst with long-term extensions on Monday.

"I'm proud of the tremendous success of our team under the leadership of Billy, David and Bob and am excited to have that continue for years to come," A's owner John Fisher said in a statement. The A's did not give further details on the extensions.
