Astros Get One-Run Win at Oakland
Colin Moran left his imprint on the 4-3 Houston win against the Oakland Athletics. Moran, who is tied for 9th in the AL with a .302 batting average, went 3 for 3 with 3 singles and 2 walks. Odrisamer Despaigne, who went 5 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 3 runs on 5 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 3. His record now stands at 3-6. James Pazos closed the game out for Houston, earning his 9th save.

It could have been a different outcome for Houston, had it not been for Ben Zobrist, the three-time All-Star . Zobrist contributed a run-scoring ground out in the top of the fifth inning to put Houston up, 4-0.

"Honestly, I'm not frustrated," said Oakland manager Tim Scholl. "The effort was great."

Even with the win, the Astros have a dismal 18-40 record.
