Yankees score 6 in the 7th, take down lowly Athletics

NEW YORK -- The Yankees took advantage of two catcher's interference calls, a hit batter and a walk to spark a bizarre six-run seventh inning, and Josh Donaldson followed with a go-ahead, two-run double that led best-in-the-majors New York over the big-league worst Oakland Athletics 9-5 Monday night.

Oakland built a 5-1 lead against Jordan Montgomery behind Elvis Andrus' tiebreaking, three-run double in a five-run third inning.

Giancarlo Stanton's fourth-inning home run and Aaron Judge's fifth-inning RBI single started the Yankees to their 23rd come-from-behind win.

DJ LeMahieu walked against Adam Oller with one out in the seventh.
