Walton's 10th-Inning Homer Lifts Athletics 6-5

Donovan Walton hit a walk-off two-run homer in the 10th inning Friday, lifting the Athletics to a 6-5 victory over the Mariners. The win followed a recent surge for Walton, who had also homered against the Blue Jays earlier in the week and has reached base in six of his last seven games. He is batting .272 with six home runs, 23 RBIs, 33 runs and two stolen bases in 76 games while providing depth for an injury-depleted Athletics lineup.
