Butler went 1-for-4 with a home run and two RBI in Friday's 11-3 loss to the Brewers.
He drove the second pitch he saw from Aaron Civale deep to right-center field, giving the A's an early 1-0 lead, but things unraveled quickly for Oakland after that. Butler has cooled down significantly in August, slashing .203/.250/.359 through 19 games, but on the season the 24-year-old still sports a .760 OPS with 14 homers and 11 steals in 95 contests.
