Vogt, limited to designated-hitter duties as he continues to rehab a surgically repaired right elbow, accounted for four of Oakland's runs, hitting a solo homer off Royals lefty Sam Selman in the fourth and a three-run shot against right-hander Christian Binford in the fifth.
"Obviously, the results are fun today," Vogt said. "I haven't been feeling great, so to have two swings like that where I actually trust the elbow, trust that everything was going well, it was nice just to take full swings and not have to feel any pain. I'll take that over the home runs, but it's always nice to hit a home run.
