An Electrifying Showdown
From the very first pitch, it was clear that our Oakland Athletics were on a mission.
With Nick Kurtz and Shea Langeliers setting the tempo, we wasted no time making our mark on the game. In the bottom of the 1st, Jacob Wilson sent a rocket into left field for a three-run homer, bringing home Kurtz and Langeliers! 
A quick, early lead with some powerful swings had us on top, 3-0.The Battle Intensifies
Of course, the Tigers clawed their way back. Riley Greene delivered for Detroit with a massive 471-foot homer in the 3rd inning that put them ahead 4-3. But, our Athletics weren't fazed! Tyler Soderstrom and Jacob Wilson struck back in the bottom half, reclaiming the lead, 5-4. It was back-and-forth, but our defense and resilient pitching held strong.
The Decisive Moment
The game stretched into the tension-filled extra innings after the Tigers scratched back to a 5-5 tie. Despite Detroit taking the lead 6-5 in the top of the 10th, our A's rallied in style. Tyler Soderstrom again delivered with an RBI single that brought us even, and the bases loaded up magnificently. Then the patience of Darell Hernaiz shone, as he aptly drew a game-winning walk-off walk! Hernaiz's calm plate appearance cinched a thrilling 7-6 victory.
Victory for the Green and Gold
This was indeed a heart-pounding display of Athleticos grit and determination. Our bullpen, highlighted by Núñez and Alvarado, held their nerve superbly against the Tigers' onslaught. Everyone's contribution on the field just shows the depth and tenacity of this team. Celebrate this sweet win, A’s fans, because today, we showed what Oakland is all about!
Green and Gold forever!
