PHOENIX (AP) — Trevor Cahill did a bit better in his second spring start for Oakland, but the Milwaukee Brewers beat the Athletics 11-9 Thursday in a game of home run derby.
In his first outing last week against the Cubs, Cahill was tagged for four earned runs and five hits while getting only one out. Against the Brewers, the All-Star righty allowed two earned runs and four hits in 2 1-3 innings.
Anderson De La Rosa hit a three-run, game-ending homer for the Brewers. Casey McGehee hit his third homer in two days and Ryan Braun also connected for Milwaukee.
Josh Willingham, Andy LaRoche and Matt Carson homered for the A’s. Oakland outfielder Coco Crisp, arrested early Wednesday on suspicion of drunk driving, had two hits and drove in a run.
