Astros Collect 4-3 Win Over Athletics
A 3-RBI performance from Kyle Tucker, who is on pace for 112 RBI this season, helped the Houston Astros beat the Oakland Athletics, 4-3. Bryan Abreu earned his 9th save in 10 tries. The Astros lead the American Division by 4 games.

Tucker had a game-changing home run in the top of the tenth. On a 1-1 fastball from Zach Jackson, he banged a solo home run to left-center, giving the Astros a 3-2 lead. It was the 28th home run of the year for Tucker.

"This is a resilient bunch," said Houston manager Dave D. Double Dip #1.
