OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) — Matt Olson scored from third base when right fielder Jordan Luplow slipped trying to field Ramon Laureano’s short fly in the ninth inning, lifting the Oakland Athletics over the Indians 3-2 in a wacky, sloppy game.
Laureano lofted a pitch over the head of second baseman Jason Kipnis, who was running toward right field.
Luplow appeared in position to make the catch but slipped on the grass and fell as the ball dropped in for a single, allowing Olson to score easily.
