Butler reached a career milestone in 2013 when he recorded his 1,000th hit during a game against the St. Louis Cardinals. That season, he played in every game and posted a personal best of 79 walks. However, the 2014 season marked a downturn in his performance, with career-low stats in slugging percentage and batting average. After Kansas City opted not to renew his contract, Butler entered free agency.
On November 18, 2014, he signed a three-year, $30 million contract with the Oakland Athletics. As of 2016, he earned a base salary of $10 million. Butler continued to serve primarily as a designated hitter during his time with the Athletics.
Billy Butler is married to Katie Butler. The couple welcomed their first child on December 10, 2008, and are parents to three children. The family primarily resides in Scottsdale, Arizona, though they also maintain close ties to relatives in Central Florida.
