Stephen Vogt hit a home run and a sacrifice fly, treating his family to a big performance after they just arrived for the summer, and the Oakland Athletics beat the Toronto Blue Jays 5-1 on Monday night.

Ramón Laureano also went deep and Elvis Andrus had an early two-run double to back Cole Irvin's gem for the A's, who drew a season-high 24,403 fans on a Fourth of July fireworks night.

Some of them chanted "We believe in Stephen Vogt!" in a chorus reminiscent of cheers that became popular during the veteran catcher's first stint with the club that included some unexpected playoff heroics.
