In the bottom of the fifth, Oakland shortstop Ryan Kreidler had a productive at-bat. With runners on 1st and 3rd and one out, Kreidler stroked a run-scoring single to right. It made the score 2-1, Oakland. For the game, he went 2-3 with a double.

"Every loss stings," said Texas manager Rob Hale. "This one is no exception."
