The A’s also halted an 11-game road losing streak. They hadn’t won away from home since June 1 in Atlanta and had lost 15 of their previous 18 games overall. “Overall it was a great game," A's manager Mark Kotsay said. "We’ve hit a lot of home runs as an offense, but we haven’t built innings that way; walks, couple hits, it’s nice to see.” Gelof was 3 for 4 with the RBI triple, a walk and a stolen base. “The month of June has been a lot better for him and he’s finishing up really strongly," Kotsay said. Gelof's average went from .196 to .205 on Friday. He hit .267 with 14 homers as a rookie second baseman last season, but has found it tougher in his second year. “All around we put it together,” he said. "It just feels good to win on the road.” Tyler Soderstrom’s home run off Ryan Thompson (3-3) leading off the eighth tied it at 4. Thompson then walked rookie Armando Alvarez before Gelof hit a line drive to the gap in right-center, scoring the go-ahead run. Max Schuemann followed by chopping a single over the head of shortstop Geraldo Perdomo to make it 6-4. The A's hit three homers in the ninth off Brandon Hughes to put it out of reach. Brent Rooker and Shea Langeliers went back-to-back, each for their 15th homers, of the season and Daz Cameron hit his third. Scott Alexander (1-2) gave up a tie-breaking single to Ketel Marte in the seventh, but picked up the victory. Mason Miller, in a non-save situation, struck out two in the ninth to preserve the win. Lourdes Gurriel Jr. hit his 11th homer leading off the sixth for Arizona off JP Sears. Arizona has lost three straight and is 1/3 on its homestand. Diamondbacks starter Slade Cecconi threw 88 pitches in four innings, allowing three runs. He struck out seven and walked two. “We’ve got to pitch better,” Diamondbacks manager Torey Lovullo said. “You can’t make assumptions because the Oakland A’s are here that we’re going to beat them three games. That’s a well-run team, they got a good manager with young players that are very enthusiastic.” Sears went six innings for Oakland, allowing five hits and three runs. Only two hits came after the first inning; he walked one and struck out six. Sears bounced back from his previous start against Minnesota, in which he pitched just 1 1/3 innings, giving up nine hits and eight runs and hitting three batters. Before the game, Arizona called up RHP Humberto Castellanos from Triple-A Reno and sent down RHP Scott McGough. NEXT Lovullo said after the game that RHP Zac Gallen will be activated from the injured list. Gallen (5-4, 3.12 ERA) has been sidelined with a right hamstring strain since he left one batter into a May 30 start against the New York Mets. Oakland’s starter will be LHP Hogan Harris (1-1, 2.72). ------ AP MLB: https://apnews.com/hub/mlb and https://twitter.com/AP--Sports SSC 2012 01932H Sm Ssc 2015 00692h Stennis Space Center Test Stand Stennis1 19782214 Large NIK 1492 A9KekTvbcBmDhZRyQ73zuM 320 80 HPsU79GCPCjh8D88W5peDSN6GanmQujde2TnCHuyb E ?width=960&crop=smart&auto=webp&s=47274d4d6b38bb5ccef833ee5c0ef82feb7ee406 Stennis Center Sign NIK 1466 ThinkstockPhotos 505621145 Fc7fbd3676543fc30a9fa3dbce34d318 Stennis Space Centre NIK 1509 NASA Announces New Stennis Space Center Director 099 Web 0 8844515826 Eff5dbf07d NSA Stennis Rendering Scaled 38678889671 2c05140008 BTbs9YHK8Mcjf7rpwFZwTU 320 80 Stennis 06.24.04.new E17c3eaf C9c6 443e B54e 882afbb4b489 1920x1080 NasaApollo17 688x1024 T B4f80f0dec894c8c8497ea279805c0d9 Name File 1280x720 2000 V3 1 38678892161 1baf89c6ec B 16148895631 0be29c5332 B AF1QipMmIPR0Q6OWVTfDOBvPbEgXqwv3mlvEif4RcRxx
