Matt Olson s double off the right-field wall scored the tying and winning runs with none out in the 10th inning Wednesday afternoon as the Oakland Athletics rallied for a 5-4 walk-off win over the visiting San Diego Padres.
The two-run uprising was Oakland s second in as many innings after the team trailed 3-1 entering the bottom of the ninth.
Seeking a two-game sweep, the Padres took advantage of a Matt Chapman error at shortstop to go up 4-3 in the top of the 10th. Chapman took over at shortstop for just the second time in his career when Yan Gomes pinch-hit for Elvis Andrus in the ninth-inning rally.
