The Athletics answered back with catcher Shea Langeliers’ solo home run to lead off the bottom of the first inning. Langeliers was 3 for 7 in the game.
Kyle Harrison had been nearly untouchable all season.

Zack Gelof (20) celebrates after hitting a double during the second inning. He would later score on Alika Williams’ double to give the A’s a 2-1 lead.

It was Sodertrom’s second home run in the game. He finished 3 for 4 with four RBI.
With no outs in the top of the ninth inning, William Contreras scores on Andrew Vaughn’s two-RBI double that made the game 10-10.
Contreras had singled and Blake Perkins pinch ran for Jake Bauers, who walked. That set the stage for Vaughn’s big hit down the left field line. Vaughn finished 4 for 6 with four RBI. But he was stranded at second after the next three batters struck out.
With one out in the top of the 10th inning and the Brewers with an 11-10 lead after Jackson Chourio brought in David Hamilton, who began the inning at second base, William Contreras demolished the pitch that brought him to his knees for a three-run home run.

William Contreras’ three-run home run in the top of the 10th inning gave the Brewers a 14-10 lead.
The four-run lead wouldn’t be enough in this game.
Nick Kurtz (16) and the A’s had an answer for the Brewers.
After the A’s got the score within three at 14-11, Kurtz hit a two-out, two-run home run to make the score, 14-13.
That wouldn’t be the end of the 10th inning dramatics.
Pinch-hitter Jonah Heim followed up Kurtz’s home run with one of his own to tie the game at 14.
It was Heim’s third home run in his last five games played.
After Heim’s home run, Brewers manager Pat Murphy pulled Aaron Ashby, who gave up all four runs in the 10th inning after pitching a scoreless ninth inning.
Abner Uribe got the final out of the 10th inning.
Abner Uribe was superb in relief for the Brewers in extra innings.
Uribe pitched 1.1 scoreless innings across the 10th and 11th innings.
Brewers designated hitter Christian Yelich (22) slides past Athletics catcher Shea Langeliers (23) to home plate during the 12th inning to give the Brewers a 15-14 lead.
Yelich scored as Athletics second baseman Jeff McNeil’s throw was off the mark after fielding a grounder from Brice Turang.
Yelich, the automatic runner at second to begin the inning, had gotten to third on a stolen base a batter earlier.
Chad Patrick (39) and catcher William Contreras (24) celebrate after the game was finally over.
Patrick closed the door, getting a final strikeout to get the save in the 15-14 victory. Brewers manager Pat Murphy called the game the most bizarre he’s ever been a part of in baseball.
