The A’s bunt their way to a win and the Astros lose in extra innings!

I have never wanted to write a recap less, but this is why they pay me the big bucks...

Anyway, the Astros lost a frustrating and very winnable game Tuesday night and they wasted a great pitching performance.

Spencer Arrighetti pitched like a top-end starter tonight, going 6.2 innings, striking out seven and only walking one. He did give up a no-doubt homer in the top of the second, but besides that, he did a good job limiting the damage.

Houston’s offense was largely dormant until the seventh when they tied the game up with some very good hitting.
