The Houston Astros walked off with a big win.

The Houston Astros beat the Oakland Athletics, 4-3. Houston pitcher and Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, native Mat Pear led the way. Josh Sandoval got credit for the win, improving to 1-0. He allowed 1 run on 1 hit in 1.1 innings.

Josh Birkner was the walk-off hero for Houston. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Astros designated hitter hit a dramatic solo home run to send the teams home.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Birkner said.

After losing, Oakland is 3-4.
