Smith led off the seventh against A's lefty Daniel Coulombe, and the speedy outfielder dropped down a bunt that Coulombe fielded, then threw into right field. By the time the A's got the ball back to the infield, Smith stood on third. Corey Dickerson followed with a sacrifice fly to right to score Smith with what turned out to be the winning run.
The Rays had to endure a high-wire act from Alex Colome, who allowed the A's to load the bases with one out in the ninth.
