The Oakland A’s scored first on Saturday, but couldn’t keep up over the course of the evening.
The A’s lost 10-4 to the Houston Astros at Minute Maid Park, after winning their previous five meetings with Houston dating back to July.
Oakland put together an impressive rally in the 1st inning, with a single and a triple to lead off the game and then a double to drive in a second run. But the Astros answered back in the bottom of the frame with a three-run homer, then another homer in the 2nd, and another in the 3rd, and a two-run triple in the 6th, and a two-run homer in the 7th.
