Ken Waldichuk never let the Astros get in a groove. The left-hander used his bread and butter, his fastball, to pitch the Athletics to a win, 3-0. The winning pitcher was Waldichuk, now 7-10. He tossed 5 innings of 2-hit ball, while walking 2 and fanning 8. The Athletics raised their record to 63-73.

Houston had a runner on 1st in the top of the seventh. With one out, Jeremy Pena came to bat, hoping to do some damage. Instead, he hit into a double play. The score remained 1-0, Oakland. The Astros saw their comeback bid fail.
