The A’s (67-87) began their final homestand at the Oakland Coliseum with an extra-inning 4-2 loss to the Yankees (90-64) as T.J. McFarland allowed three runs (two earned) to the Bronx Bombers in the top of the 10th inning.

Oakland A's players made some small gestures to the fans at the Coliseum to show their appreciation with the New York Yankees in town.

Gerrit Cole held the A's to one run in nine innings and Juan Soto made a rare pinch-hit appearance for the Yankees in extras.

Juan Soto walked up to manager Aaron Boone in the middle of the game and told him the banged-up left knee that kept him out of the lineup was feeling good enough for the slugger to give the New York Yankees one at-bat if a key moment came.
