Athletics Drop Astros, 8-5
The Oakland Athletics beat the Houston Astros, 8-5, at Minute Maid Park. The Athletics got a fine performance from first baseman Joey Votto, who went 1 for 4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. The loss makes Houston 28-29.

Oakland used a well-timed hit by Greg Garcia to capture the win. The shortstop socked a run-scoring double in the top of the third inning to put the Athletics ahead, 1-0. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"I'm just looking for a good pitch that I can hit well," said Votto. "And not try to do too much."
