A's Power Surge Ends Long Skid | MLB News

The Athletics roar back to life with a 5-2 win over the Rangers, fueled by power hitting and a much-needed home series victory. Zack Gelof and Lawrence Butler both crushed two-run homers, while rookie Tommy White launched his first MLB shot. After a brutal 13-series skid with zero wins, this win marks their first home series win since mid-June. Jacob Lopez earned his sixth win in six innings, striking out six and limiting damage. The offense exploded in the later innings, tying it up and then taking control with key blasts. Now they head to Kansas City for a four-game set — the Rangers return home to face the Nationals.
