A’s beat Tigers 8-6 on Ryon Healy’s two-run home run in ninth inning

OAKLAND — Ryon Healy hit a one-out two-run home run in the ninth inning Sunday to give the A’s an 8-6 win over the Detroit Tigers, their second walk-off win in as many days.

I

t came again against Francisco Rodriguez, scoring Jed Lowrie, who had earlier doubled home Rajai Davis to tie the game. The A’s had lost three previous series coming in to the game and appeared to have wasted an encouraging if hard-luck effort by Sonny Gray and yet another home run by Yonder Alonso.

Santiago Casilla, who pitched a 1-2-3 top of the ninth, was the winning pitcher, with reliever Ryan Dull getting off the hook for an apparent loss.
