The Houston Astros tore into the Oakland A’s late in Wednesday’s game, after a dominant start by Zack Greinke. The right-hander tossed a quality start of one earned run across four hits over eight innings of work.

In rout to an 8-1 victory, the Astros got to the point of pinch hitting and making defensive replacements, as five hitters had two or more hits on Wednesday.
