Two batters later, Jerar Encarnacion doubled to left field for Anderson and Aguilar to score. Jacob Stallings then knocked in Encarnacion on a base hit to center. 
     The A's were able to break the shutout in the bottom of the ninth with three runs. Stephen Vogt got a single up the middle and Sean Murphy reached home. Shea Langeliers drove in Chad Pinder with a double to deep left. Jonah Bride brought in Vogt on a sacrifice fly to right field.
