OAKLAND — Evan Longoria picked up his 1,000th career RBI in the third inning Sunday with a solo home run to center field. But he didn’t stop there.
Longoria’s two-run single with the bases loaded in the seventh inning proved to be the difference as the Giants came away with a 5-4 win over the A’s at the Coliseum to capture the Bay Bridge Series three games to one.
After seeing Buster Posey battle reliever Blake Treinen in an 11-pitch at-bat that resulted in a strikeout. Longoria took the first pitch he saw from the former A’s closer to left field, scoring both Brandon Crawford and Donovan Solano to put the Giants up by one.
