LAS VEGAS — \u2014\u00a0Henry Bolte\u00a0hit his first career home run and the Athletics went deep five more times Tuesday night\u00a0at Las Vegas Ballpark\u00a0on the way to a 7-5 victory over the\u00a0Milwaukee Brewers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Called up May 13 from the minors, Bolte connected on a 1-1 changeup from\u00a0Robert Gasser\u00a0and sent it 446 feet to right-center field to give the A’s a 3-2 lead in the second inning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Tyler Soderstrom\u00a0snapped a 3-all tie with a two-run homer in the fifth, and the A’s also got solo shots from\u00a0Nick Kurtz,\u00a0Jonah Heim\u00a0and\u00a0Zack Gelof.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Each member of that trio homered Monday night, too, as the A’s launched seven longballs at the home of their Triple-A affiliate in a\u00a0wild 15-14 loss to Milwaukee\u00a0that took 12 innings to decide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The club normally plays at its temporary home in West Sacramento, California, but is playing six games in Las Vegas this week ahead of a scheduled move in 2028 into a new stadium in the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Athletics won in their future home city for the first time since April 7, 1996, when they played their first two series of the season in Las Vegas due to renovations at the Oakland Coliseum. They are 3-5 in Las Vegas all-time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Soderstrom\u2019s 354-foot shot marked the second straight game in which the A\u2019s hit a homer that would not have left any major league ballpark, according to Statcast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
J.T. Ginn\u00a0(4-3) got the win despite giving up five runs, eight hits and three walks in 5 2\/3 innings.\u00a0Elvis Alvarado\u00a0struck out four in 1 1\/3 scoreless innings and\u00a0Mason Barnett\u00a0also fanned four in two hitless innings for his first career save.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Jackson Chourio\u00a0opened the scoring for the Brewers with a two-run homer in the first. Christian Yelick and\u00a0Sal Frelick\u00a0added RBI singles, and Frelick picked up a second RBI on a groundout.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Gasser (0-3) struck out seven in five innings but allowed eight hits, six runs and four homers.\u00a0Garrett Mitchell\u00a0was 3 for 4 with two doubles and two runs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Up next<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Brewers RHP\u00a0Brandon Sproat\u00a0(1-4, 6.17 ERA) starts the series finale Wednesday night against RHP\u00a0Jack Perkins\u00a0(2-3, 6.19).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
