Murphy Delivers Walk-Off Win for Athletics
The Houston Astros got a superb performance from third baseman Alex Bregman. Still, it wasn't enough to beat Oakland. The Athletics won the game, 6-5. Bregman was 4 for 5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. J.B. Wendelken, now 6-0, was credited with the win. He allowed no runs on no hits, while striking out 2 and walking 0. The victory gives Oakland a record of 45-33.

The game came to a dramatic end. In the bottom of the ninth, with Oakland trailing 5-4, Sean Murphy hit a fastball from Ryan Pressly for a 2-run home run, giving the Athletics the walk-off win.

"Our goal is to improve each and every day," Murphy told the Oakland Citizen.
