Athletics Post 5-4 Win Over Houston
The Las Vegas Athletics picked up a win at Minute Maid Park, knocking off the Houston Astros, 5-4. On the mound for Las Vegas was right-hander Steve Swift. He played a key role in the triumph. Swift got the win, improving to 3-4. He gave up 5 hits and walked 1 over 6 innings. He allowed 3 runs. Mike Jakubowski Jr. closed the door for Las Vegas, picking up his 15th save of the year.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Mike Flickinger? The Las Vegas second baseman had a 2-run double in the top of the fourth inning to put the Athletics on top, 5-3. For the game, Flickinger had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"I liked his command," said Las Vegas manager Kyle Russell. "Steve was throwing strikes."

Today's win puts Las Vegas at 38-20, while Houston falls to 30-29.
