Murphy HR, 3 RBIs As A's Beat O's
Sean Murphy snapped out of an offensive funk and played heads-up defense in a close game, too. Murphy homered, doubled and drove in three runs while ending an 0-for-10 stretch, and also made an alert play that led to the ejections of Baltimore star Trey Mancini and manager Brandon Hyde as the Oakland Athletics beat the Orioles 6-4 Thursday.
