(OAKLAND, CA) – Matt Olson scored from second base on a fielding error by Detroit third baseman Jeimer Candelario with two outs in the ninth inning, rallying the Oakland Athletics past the Tigers 3-2 on Sunday for their eighth straight win. Sean Murphy hit a tying home run in the eighth as the A's swept the four-game series. Olson hit a one-out double off Gregory Soto (1-0) when Tigers center fielder Victor Reyes lost a high fly ball in the sun. After Matt Chapman struck out looking, Murphy walked before pinch-hitter Mitch Moreland hit a sharp grounder that rolled under Candelario's glove into left field. Ramón Laureano had an RBI triple for the A's. The A's are 9-1 since starting the season 0-6. Harold Castro had three hits for the Tigers, including a two-run single in the sixth that snapped Detroit's 23-inning scoreless streak. The Tigers have lost four straight after sweeping three from the Astros in Houston. Matthew Boyd started and gave up four hits and two runs in 7 1/3 innings. Murphy's home run was the first off Boyd this season after the lefty allowed an AL-leading 15 in the shortened 2020 season. A's starter Chris Bassitt struck out a season-high eight in six innings and allowed five hits and two runs. Lou Trivino (1-0) retired three batters for the win.
