Three of Chirinos' four homers on the season have come in the last two days. Chirinos hit a solo homer off A's reliever John Axford (3-2) in the top of the seventh inning that broke a 5-5 tie.

Texas trailed 5-0 in the sixth when Chirinos started a five-run rally with a leadoff homer off starter Sonny Gray. Odor's two-run homer off Gray tied the game. He added a solo shot - his 12th - in the eighth off Sean Doolittle.
