Athletics' Lawrence Butler: Powers offense Tuesday
Butler went 2-for-4 with a three-run home run and additional run scored in Tuesday's 7-5 win over the Angels.
This was Butler's first multi-hit effort in 12 contests since he was recalled from Triple-A Las Vegas. He's gone 7-for-32 (.219) in that span, adding 12 strikeouts and no walks. The outfielder is at a .188/.266/.297 slash line with three homers, 11 RBI, 12 runs scored and four stolen bases through 154 plate appearances this season. Butler is sharing right field with Daz Cameron, though the lefty-hitting Butler has lost out on some starts versus right-handed pitchers.

Athletics' Lawrence Butler: Nabs fourth steal Sunday
Butler went 1-for-2 with a stolen base in a loss to the Diamondbacks on Sunday.
Butler snapped a brief 0-for-6 skid that had encompassed his last three games, and the steal was the first of the rookie's current big-league stint. Despite Sunday's modest success, Butler hasn't been much better at the plate than he was during his initial tenure with the Athletics from Opening Day through May 13 -- he's carrying a .179 average, .422 OPS and 34.5 percent strikeout rate across the 29 plate appearances he's logged since returning June 18.

Athletics' Lawrence Butler: Sitting versus lefty
Butler is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Royals.
Butler was called up from Triple-A Las Vegas on Tuesday and went 1-for-3 with a double and a run in his first big-league game in over a month. He'll head to the bench Wednesday as lefty Cole Ragans starts for Kansas City, which opens up right field for Daz Cameron.

Athletics' Lawrence Butler: Doubles, scores in return to bigs
Butler, promoted from Triple-A Las Vegas earlier in the day, went 1-for-3 with a double and a run in a win over the Royals on Tuesday.
The speedy outfielder churned out his fifth double and seventh extra-base hit overall at the big-league level this season in the fourth inning and subsequently crossed the plate on Zack Gelof's three-run home run. Butler has a path to playing time now that Seth Brown has been jettisoned from the 40-man roster, but the former must cut down on the strikeouts that plagued him during his first Athletics stint this season and eventually helped lead to his demotion.
