Astros Deal Athletics 8-3 Loss
Houston picked up a win at O.co Coliseum, bumping off the Oakland Athletics, 8-3. Pitcher Brian Thomas was a major reason the Astros emerged victorious. Mike Chisolm earned the save for Houston, his 1st. Houston, with the win, is 56-104.

Houston used a well-timed hit by Chris Lane to capture the win. The first baseman socked a run-scoring double in the top of the third inning to put the Astros ahead, 1-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"Brian -- his tempo and rhythm were good," said Astros manager Dave DaSilva. "He was the key to us winning."
