Houston Gets 6-2 Win
The Houston Astros topped the Oakland Athletics by the score of 6-2, with the largest share of the credit going to left fielder Chas McCormick. McCormick went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs for the Astros. The win for the Astros raised their record to 52-48.

The Athletics had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Astros going into the top of the second inning. That changed quickly when the 2020 Most Valuable Player Award winner José Abreu came to the plate. Abreu hit a bases-clearing double on a first pitch curveball from Oakland hurler Joe Boyle. It was Abreu's 11th double of the year.

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