Impact Brown plated the Athletics' second run with an RBI single in the sixth inning, which was his third hit of the game. A stint on the paternity list explains part of Brown's limited playing time in August -- he's gone 9-for-29 (.310) over eight contests this month. He remains in a strong-side platoon role at first base, sharing the position primarily with Tyler Nevin. Brown is slashing .224/.280/.376 with 10 home runs, 29 RBI, 22 runs scored and four stolen bases over 275 plate appearances this season.
