Astros Edge Athletics, 3-2
Houston Astros starter Odrisamer Despaigne turned in a sterling performance against the Oakland Athletics, leading his team to a slim 3-2 win. Houston reliever Alex Colome picked up the win, bumping his record to 1-0. Matt Barnes was collared with the loss. The defending champion Astros have struggled a bit to find their groove this season, but improve to 14-13 with the win.

Had Brock Holt not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Holt hit a 2-run single. That made the score 3-1, in favor of the Astros.

"I liked his command," said Houston manager Eric Myers. "Odrisamer was throwing strikes."
