Houston starter Greg Connolly kept the Oakland offense from doing much damage. The right-hander leaned on his changeup in leading the Astros to a 6-1 win. The Astros go to 31-46 with the win.

Connolly delivered a quality start for Houston. The 5-foot-10 right-hander allowed no earned runs on 2 hits over 6.2 innings of work.

"I just tried to attack the bottom of the zone," Connolly said.
