Soderstrom, Kurtz and Wynns Homer as the A's Beat the Toronto Blue Jays 6-3
Tyler Soderstrom, Nick Kurtz, and Austin Wynns each hit a two-run homer, helping the Athletics beat the Toronto Blue Jays 6-3 on Sunday. Jeffrey Springs (8-6) pitched 6 2/3 innings of three-run ball in the win. He struck out five and walked none. The As won for the third time in four games. They are 41-57 at the All-Star break in their first year in Sacramento. Davis Schneider and Addison Barger homered for AL East-leading Toronto, who finished with four hits and three errors. The Blue Jays (55-41) dropped to 13-4 in their last 17 games. The As jumped in front in the second. With Gio Urshela aboard after a leadoff single, Wynns hit a one-out drive to left off José Berríos for his sixth homer. Kurtz hit a leadoff double in the third and scored on Soderstrom's 18th homer, a 410-foot drive to center on a 1-2 sinker. Soderstrom hit a total of 12 homers in his first two years in the majors. The Blue Jays got one back when Schneider hit a solo shot in the fifth. But Kurtz went deep in the bottom half after All-Star Jacob Wilson reached on a throwing error on reliever Tommy Nance. Wilson and Kurtz are two of the leading contenders for AL Rookie of the Year at the break. Wilson is hitting .332 with nine homers and 42 RBIs, and Kurtz is batting .257 with 17 homers and 44 RBIs. Berríos (5-4) permitted four runs and five hits in three innings. He went 3-0 with a 2.52 ERA in his previous four starts.

A's hand Rays 3rd-straight loss 4-3
Austin Wynns hit a sacrifice fly in the 10th inning and the Athletics handed the Tampa Bay Rays a 4-3 loss on Tuesday night, their third straight. The Rays' last three-game skid came against the Phillies at home in early May and they have now lost four of five to last-place teams. Colby Thomas, who got his first career hit earlier, started the 10th on second base and was sacrificed to third by Denzel Clarke. No. 9 hitter Max Schuemann, who was starting in place of Jacob Wilson, the second-leading hitter in the majors who was a late scratch with a sore right hamstring, worked Mason Montgomery (1-2) for a walk ahead of pinch-hitter Wynns. Michael Kelly (2-0) got the win despite allowing two singles and throwing a wild pitch in the ninth. Mason Miller earned his 17th save, although he intentionally walked Jonathan Aranda with two outs and then threw a wild pitch to advance the runners before striking out Brandon Lowe. Max Muncy hit a two-run homer in the fourth and Shea Langeliers had a solo shot in the sixth for the A's. Christopher Morel, Lowe and Danny Jansen homered for the Rays. Tampa Bay starter Shane Baz went seven innings, allowing five hits and matching his career high 11 strikeouts with just one walk. Key moment José Caballero, who stole his 30th base in the second inning, singled to lead off the ninth but was thrown out at second by Langeliers on the next pitch. Key stat With wins in the first two games of the three-game series, the A's have won a series against the Rays for the first time since April 2022. Tampa Bay had won eight-straight home series. Up next Tampa Bay RHP Ryan Pepiot (5-6, 3.36 ERA) is scheduled to start on Wednesday against the Athletics' RHP Mitch Spence (2-3, 3.83).
