Athletics Down Astros, 4-2
The Houston Astros got a superb performance from pitcher Salisbury Swanson. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Oakland. The Athletics won the game, 4-2. Swanson threw 7.0 innings of 5-hit ball. Oakland reliever Mike Pedigo was the winner. His record is now 6-9. The losing pitcher was Kyle McPeak. Joe Spampinato converted his 1st save in 1 tries.

Oakland used the clutch hitting of Quincy Bradford to capture the win. The shortstop drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Athletics ahead, 4-2. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a big one.

When asked about his performance after the game, Bradford said: "Like everyone else, I'm just doing my job."

The 4th-place Athletics improved to 64-88.
