Athletics Snatch Late Win
The Oakland Athletics overcame a good performance by Houston center fielder George Springer to knock off Houston, 7-5, at Minute Maid Park. Springer went 2 for 4 with a home run, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. Liam Hendriks converted his 9th save in 12 tries. The triumph puts Oakland at 31-24 for the season.

Oakland used a clutch hit from Marcus Semien to get the win. The shortstop drilled a 2-run home run in the top of the eighth inning to put the Athletics ahead, 7-5. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a doozy.

"We'll pop the top on a cold beverage and get back to work tomorrow," Semien said.
