Seth Brown scored on a fielding error by Atlanta third baseman Austin Riley in the ninth inning, and the Oakland A's beat the Braves 2-1, recording consecutive victories for the second time this season.
“You got to think at some point he’s going to groove one,” Bride said of Iglesias. “I saw a fastball up. Obviously trying to hit it in the air, but got on top of it. But I’ve always heard good things happen when you put it in play. And that was the case tonight.”
“Winning a series feels good,” Kotsay said. “It’s something that we’ve had a hard time with, obviously. Wins build confidence. As much work and preparation as these guys do, you still need that win to support that the work is paying off.”One day after ending an 11-game losing streak with a 7-2 win over the Braves, Oakland struggled to get much going against Atlanta starter Bryce Elder.
In the fifth, Oakland strung together three straight singles with one out, tying the game. Shea Langeliers got it going with the A’s second hit of the game and scored on Esteury Ruiz’s single to left. Pillar, who has homered in his last three starts, led off the third by drilling a 2-1 fastball 344 feet, hitting the cement facade above the padded wall in left and bouncing back onto the field. The veteran outfielder later doubled to nearly the same spot in the fifth. The ball hit on the warning track, bounced up and ricocheted off the wall.
