Athletics Handle Astros, 9-5
The performance of Muneo Kawachi proved critical in helping Oakland beat Houston, 9-5. The Athletics center fielder was 2-3 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2. Carlos Alaniz picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 1-2. Bill Tulk was tagged with the loss. Oakland is now riding a 3-game win streak.

Had Danny Murillo not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 3rd, Murillo hit a 2-run double. That made the score 6-5, in favor of the Athletics.

"If we play like this, we can win a lot of games," Kawachi told the Oakland Bulletin.
