The Oakland Athletics have had a dramatic turnaround in their recent games against the Colorado Rockies. On May 22, Abraham Toro hit a go-ahead homer in the eighth inning after Seth Brown's tying two-run drive in the seventh, leading the A's to a 5-4 victory and snapping an eight-game losing streak. The following day, the A's faced a four-run deficit in the 11th inning but rallied for five runs to win 10-9 in a marathon game that ended with a walk-off walk. Daz Cameron tied the game in the 9th, and JJ Bleday contributed to the 11th inning rally. The Rockies' bullpen struggled significantly in both games, contributing to their losses.
