Shea Langeliers and Jacob Wilson both hit two-run home runs and Luis Severino earned his first win in more than a month as the visiting Athletics pulled away for an 8-2 win over the Cleveland Guardians on Saturday night.
Langeliers went deep in the eighth inning off Nic Enright, and Wilson and Nick Kurtz each cleared the fence in the ninth against Kolby Allard to complete an unanswered eight-run onslaught by the A's.
The Guardians went on top 2-0 lead in the third inning on a Jose Ramirez two-run homer that plated Nolan Jones. It marked the eighth consecutive game that Cleveland belted a go-ahead homer, breaking the franchise record.
Severino (3-11) went five innings, allowing two runs on three hits in snapping a five-start losing streak that began after beating the Kansas City Royals on June 13. The right-hander struck out three and walked two in an 86-pitch outing.
Jack Perkins and Justin Sterner combined for four hitless innings to wrap up the three-hitter..
The A's scored three times in the fourth to take a 3-2 advantage against Cleveland starter Logan Allen (6-8). Three straight doubles by Brent Rooker, Kurtz and Langeliers preceded Miguel Andujar's sharp single.
Rookie first baseman Kurtz went 3-for-5 and drove in two runs, and speedy center fielder Denzel Clarke fell a homer shy of hitting for the cycle for the Athletics.
The Guardians lost for just the second time in nine games and have split the first two contests in the three-game series.
Allen worked 5 1/3 innings and gave up three runs on eight hits. The left-hander struck out four and walked one, matching his shortest start since May 25.
The Athletics had lost eight straight in Cleveland -- one shy of their longest road skid in the series -- and are 5-20 overall since 2022. They dropped nine in a row at the then-Indians from May 27, 1994, to June 11, 1996.
