Royce Lewis, batting just .199 at Target Field, .175 in August, and .136 during this homestand, was robbed of a potential extra-base hit by A’s left-fielder Tyler Soderstrom in the sixth inning Thursday, and took it out on his headwear when he reached the dugout, pounding it several times against the bat rack in frustration.

After taking the series opener in Minnesota last night the A’s will try to make it two in a row over the Twins, looking to both inch closer to 60 wins while burying the Twins’ dwindling playoff chances.
