The Cincinnati Reds never found a way to slow down A's outfielder Lawrence Butler, who homered three more times on Thursday and clobbered five in three games at Great American Ballpark. TJ Friedl, who starred at Pleasanton's Foothill High, capped Cincinnati's three-run ninth inning with a two-run single in the Reds' 10-9 comeback win.

With Andujar missing three games now, Daz Cameron has started each of those contests in left field, going 2-for-10 with an RBI and five strikeouts.
