The home crowd had a good time watching the Oakland Athletics and Houston Astros get after it.

Getting offensive support from Matt Kemp, the Houston Astros topped the Oakland Athletics, 10-2. Kemp belted 2 home runs. He scored 3 runs and drove in 3 for the Astros. The Athletics fall to 11-16 and continue their lackluster start in 2020.

Houston catcher Austin Romine contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the first. With two down, he hit a fastball into left field for a grand slam home run. It was his 2nd home run of the season and put the Astros ahead, 5-0.

"I'm proud to be a part of what we've got going on here," Romine told the Houston Citizen. "It's a great group and we're happy with the win."
