Astros Lose, 7-2, at Oakland Coliseum
Xander Bogaerts did all he could to help his team win. In the end, though, it wasn't enough to keep the Houston Astros from losing, 7-2, to the Oakland Athletics at Oakland Coliseum. Bogaerts went 3 for 4 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 times. Oakland has now won 3 in a row.

A crucial at-bat came with runners on 2nd and 3rd and two out in the bottom of the fourth inning. That's when designated hitter Max Schrock drew a walk. The Athletics went on to win.

"We believe in ourselves and we're willing to work hard. It's a good combination," Schrock told the Oakland Citizen.
