OAKLAND -- Billy Butler hit a pinch-hit go-ahead single in the sixth before A's starter Rich Hill departed with an apparent injury in Sunday's 4-2 series-finale win over the Tigers at the Coliseum.
Hill left with a trainer after striking out James McCann in the top of the seventh inning, putting a damper on another quality outing, as he struck out nine and left in line for his eighth win of the season.
Hill's departure came only a half-inning after Butler connected off Tigers reliever Justin Wilson to make it 3-2.
