LAS VEGAS — Tyler Soderstrom and Nick Kurtz each homered for the third time in two games, powering the Athletics to a 7-5 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Tuesday night, evening the three-game series.

After homering seven times in the wild series opener, won by the Brewers 15-14 in 12 innings, the A’s pounded out another five homers Tuesday at the hitter-friendly home of the Athletics’ Triple-A affiliate.

The A’s scored three runs in the fifth off Milwaukee starter Robert Gasser (0-3) on homers by Soderstrom and Jonah Heim to go in front 6-3.

Shea Langeliers singled with one out and Soderstrom, who homered twice in the series opener, followed with his 11th long ball. Heim added a two-out solo shot, his fifth.

The Brewers pulled within 6-5 in the sixth on two walks, two singles and an error, chasing A’s starter J.T. Ginn. Elvis Alvarado relieved Ginn with two outs and fanned Jackson Chourio, stranding runners on second and third.

Zack Gelof opened the bottom half with his eighth homer off reliever Joel Kuhnel, acquired from the A’s on Saturday.

Ginn (4-3) allowed five runs on eight hits in 5 2/3 innings, striking out five and walking three. Mason Barnett tossed two scoreless for his first career save.

Henry Bolte put the A’s up 3-2 in the second with his first career homer, a 446-foot two-run shot to center after Heim’s leadoff single.

The Brewers tied it 3-all in the fourth on Sal Frelick’s RBI single.

Chourio staked the Brewers to a quick 2-0 lead, following Christian Yelich’s game-opening single with his fifth home run.

Kurtz, who also homered twice in the series opener, answered in the bottom half with a one-out solo homer, his 15th. He went deep for the third day in a row.

The A’s will follow the series against the Brewers with three games in Las Vegas against the Colorado Rockies. The Athletics are currently based in West Sacramento, Calif., until their new climate-controlled stadium is scheduled to open in Las Vegas for the start of the 2028 season.
