Coco Crisp went 2-for-4 with a home run and a game-winning sacrifice fly to help the A's come from behind to beat the Red Sox 3-2 on Tuesday.
Between the second and eighth innings, Crisp didn't do much. But he led off the bottom of the first with a solo homer off Jon Lester, putting Oakland on top 1-0. With one out in the bottom of ninth and the score tied 2-2, Crisp smacked a sac fly off Alfredo Aceves to send Oakland to its 40th win. Crisp has been pretty awful this season, posting a .223/.291/.302 slash line. To be fair, he's played better since the beginning of June and, as always, provides speed. He still has the ability to be useful in mixed leagues.
