Holding a 3-2 lead in after six innings, the A's got after right-hander Ryne Stanek, who surrendered a solo home run to Ryon Healy, and a two-run homer to Chad Pinder. The outburst gave the A's a four-run cushion, effectively putting the game on ice.

Home runs accounted for four of the A's runs, as Josh Phegley also went deep for the A's.
