In a low-scoring game between Oakland and Houston, pitcher Ron Baker was excellent. The Oakland right-hander helped his team knock off the Astros, 2-0. In 6.2 innings, Baker surrendered 3 hits, while striking out 5 and walking 2. He allowed no runs. Gabriel Ynoa notched his 25th save in 27 chances.

Oakland first baseman Ismael Díaz contributed a timely at-bat in the bottom of the third. With two down, he hit a fastball to right-center field for a 2-run single. It was his 75th hit of the season and put the Athletics ahead, 2-0.

"Ron did a heck of a job," said Oakland manager Bob Melvin.

Oakland goes to 74-85, Houston to 65-94.
