| Athletics Drop Another One, 6-5 | Kansas City second baseman Jose Vidro had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 6-5, to Houston at The Big Green A. Vidro was 4-4 with a home run and 3 singles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. Takashi Saito notched his 25th save in 26 chances. Houston has 4 straight wins, Kansas City 8 straight losses.
Houston used a well-timed hit by Michael Brantley to capture the win. The right fielder socked a bases-clearing double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Eagles ahead, 3-1. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it was important.
"I like our mindset right now," said Houston manager Charles Wolfson.
