OAKLAND (AP) — Jed Lowrie hit his second home run of the game with two outs in the 11th inning and the Oakland Athletics beat the Angels, 3-2, on Monday night for their third straight walk-off win.

Lowrie got Oakland on the board with a solo shot in the fourth inning and ended it with a drive to right field off Deolis Guerra (2-2) that sent the A's pouring out of the dugout in celebration again.

This victory followed dramatic comebacks against Detroit that were capped by Adam Rosales' game-ending single Saturday and Ryon Healy's homer on Sunday. Oakland has three consecutive walk-off victories for the first time since June 2004.

Liam Hendricks (1-0) pitched two scoreless innings as the A's won for the fourth time in five games.
