Athletics Absorb 7-4 Home Loss
Samad Taylor was a major contributor to the 7-4 Houston win over Oakland. The Astros first baseman was 1-1 with a double, 3 walks, and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 times. Picking up the win was Humberto Garza. He went 5 innings, allowing 4 runs on 5 hits. The right--hander struck out 2 and walked 5. The Athletics have now dropped 5 straight.

Houston second baseman Willi Castro contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the fifth. With two down, he hit a changeup to left field for a run-scoring single. It was his 101st hit of the season and put the Astros ahead, 5-4.

"Enjoyed this one," Castro told the Houston Herald. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
