Astros Prevail, 5-3, Over Oakland
Houston starter Shane Walker had a strong outing against the Oakland Athletics at O.co Coliseum. The right-hander was a big part of his team's 5-3 win. Walker went 8 innings to notch the win. He scattered 5 hits, walked 1, and struck out 7. His record improves to 8-13. Bill Dillard was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 5 of 14 save opportunities.

Houston used a timely hit from Addick de Vries to get the win. The designated hitter stroked a bases-clearing double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Astros ahead, 5-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said de Vries. "And not try to do too much."

The Astros go to 50-102 with the win.
