Butler went 1-for-3 with an RBI sacrifice fly and a run in a win over the Rays on Monday.
Butler had a hand in two of the Athletics' three runs while working out of the leadoff spot, a slotting in which he owns a .273 average and .866 OPS this season. However, the rookie's bat has cooled in August after a torrid July, as he's still carrying just a .184 average and 28.6 percent strikeout rate across 56 plate appearances thus far this month.
