| Athletics Prevail, 5-4, Over Toronto | The Oakland Athletics did just enough to sneak past the Toronto Blue Jays, 5-4, at Rogers Centre. Oakland pitcher Steven Brault earned player of the game honors. Craig Kimbrel finished to wrap up his 2nd save. At 17-27, the Athletics are currently 4th in the American League West Division.
Rhys Hoskins, who is tied for 6th in the AL in home runs with 11, chipped in for Oakland with a 2-run home run in the top of the seventh. For the game, the left fielder had 2 hits in 4 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 runs batted in.
"Enjoyed this one," Hoskins told the Oakland Citizen. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
