| HOUSTON -- Brandon Moss was having a frustrating night before the ninth inning. http://www.officialraidersgear.com/Raiders-Lee-Smith-Draft-Jersey/ . Mired in an 0-for-14 rut, Moss turned things around on one pitch. He hit a go-ahead single during a six-run rally in the ninth inning that sent the Oakland Athletics to a 7-4 victory over the Houston Astros on Tuesday night. Josh Reddick homered for the AL West-leading As and Yoenis Cespedes had three hits, including two doubles. "It had not been a very good day until that last at-bat," Moss said. "I was just trying to battle, stay on the ball a little bit. Get on base any way I could. If I got a good pitch to hit, hit it hard." Oakland trailed 4-1 in the ninth before pinch-hitter Alberto Callaspo had a two-run single off closer Chad Qualls (1-2). After Houston couldnt turn a potential game-ending double play on John Jasos grounder, Jed Lowrie walked and Cespedes tied it with a single. Moss ended his slump with the RBI single off Tony Sipp and then Josh Donaldson hit a two-run double off Jose Veras. "We always have confidence in him," Oakland manager Bob Melvin said of Moss. "Hes played himself into a role here this year where hes getting at-bats against left-handers, too, and doing some damage, and no more than that one right there." Evan Scribner (1-0) got the win and Sean Doolittle pitched the ninth for his 16th save. "They just found some holes when they needed to and hit the ball on the screws when they needed to," Qualls said. "I just didnt get it done." Marwin Gonzalez homered off the left-field foul pole in the first inning to give the Astros a 1-0 lead. Kike Hernandez had an RBI triple as part of a two-run fifth and an RBI double in seventh to give the Astros the 4-1 lead. "Any time you lose games in the eighth or ninth inning, those are tough games to lose," Houston manager Bo Porter said. "We were in position to win the ballgame and just were not able to close it out." Astros starter Scott Feldman allowed one run and five hits in seven innings. He rebounded after one of his worst outings of the season Thursday at Oakland in which he gave up six runs in 5 1-3 innings. As starter Jeff Samardzija gave up four runs and six hits with seven strikeouts in 6 2-3 innings. "Im not happy with how I pitched, but to keep it close and give these guys a chance, sometimes thats all I need," Samardzija said. TRAINERS ROOM Athletics: Outfielder Coco Crisp, who has missed the last two games with a neck strain, had an MRI on his neck Monday. The exam showed no changes, As manager Bob Melvin said. Astros: Outfielder George Springer, who has been on the disabled list since July 20 with a right quad strain, took batting practice Tuesday. "Its big to be out here and just to get some swings," Springer said. ON DECK Right-hander Jason Hammel will try to get his first win with the As after going 0-3 with a 7.11 ERA in his first three starts since being acquired July 5 from the Cubs. Houston lefty Dallas Keuchel, who is 9-7 with a 3.11 ERA, will try to follow up a solid outing in a 2-0 loss to Miami in the final game of the three-game series Wednesday. OAKLAND NEVER OUT OF IT The win Tuesday was the As sixth this season when trailing after eight innings and was the second time the As scored at least six runs in the ninth this year after Oakland scored seven runs in the top of the ninth on April 25, also at Houston. A STREAK CONTINUED AND SNAPPED Houston second baseman Jose Altuve extended his hitting streak to 11 games with his RBI single in the fifth. The streak is Altuves second-longest of the season after a 12-game streak from May 8-21. Astros outfielder Robbie Grossman was 0 for his last 13 before a single in the fifth. Cory James Jersey .com) - Jimmy Butler made four key free throws down the stretch to lift the Chicago Bulls over the Boston Celtics, 109-102, on Friday. http://www.officialraidersgear.com/Raiders-Marcus-Gilchrist-Draft-Jersey/ . Both the top-seeded Djokovic and sixth-seeded Fish took relatively easy paths, with the Serb winning when opponent Jo-Wilfried Tsonga retired in the second set with a sore arm and Fish dominating Janko Tipsarevic in two quick sets. http://www.officialraidersgear.com/Raiders-Jim-Otto-Draft-Jersey/ . That still leaves a big hole.You dont replace the leadership, defensive co-ordinator Billy Davis said. You just dont. Leadership is something that is earned over time.HOUSTON -- Houston starter Jarred Cosart made it through seven innings for the first time in more than a month on Saturday against Tampa Bay. His performance in the 7-3 win was much more impressive considering he was battling a case of food poisoning and was ill in both the second and third innings. "I felt terrible in the third inning, I thought: Im not going to make it," he said. "But you keep pushing yourself. Its the competitive side. I didnt want to come out of the game. I didnt want to tax the bullpen and I guess I wasnt dying, so I was able to pitch." Cosart (6-5) allowed nine hits and three runs in his longest outing since May 5 for the win. Matt Dominguez broke out of a slump with two hits, including a three-run double in Houstons big third inning to help the Astros to the victory. Dominguez was 1 for 12 in the first three games of this homestand before singling in the second inning. The Astros led by one when he cleared the bases with his double in a five-run third inning that made it 5-1. "He obviously had a couple days there where he wasnt seeing the ball too good," manager Bo Porter said. "I felt like he did a great job of making them get the ball up today. The base-clearing double was a huge hit at that moment of the game." Tampa Bay starter Chris Archer (3-4) was done in by an error and a lack of control in his shortest start this season. He allowed three hits and six runs -- one earned -- with three walks in three innings. The Astros got back on track after striking out a season-high 16 times in a 6-1 loss in the opener Friday night. Dexter Fowler had two RBIs and Marwin Gonzalez, who was filling in for the injured Jose Altuve, had three hits and scored twice. Altuve missed his second straight game after being hit on the right hand by a pitch on Thursday night. "Marwin he has been absolutely huge for us the entire season," Porter said. "Whether its giving Dominguez a day at third base or stepping in at shortstop and now stepping in at second base for Altuve being hit by a pitch, hes been constant."t; Evan Longoria homered and drove in all of the runs for the Rays, who have lost 15 of their past 18 games. Marquel Lee Jersey. Rookie Kevin Kiermaier doubled with one out in the first and scored on a single by Longoria to put Tampa Bay up 1-0. Gonzalez got things going in the third with a one-out double before advancing to third on a wild pitch. Fowler reached and Gonzalez scored to tie it at 1-1 on an error by Archer with two outs when he missed the catch at first base. Archer slipped and fell onto his stomach while trying to make that catch, and was unable to locate his pitches after that. He plunked George Springer on the left shoulder and walked Jon Singleton before giving Houston the lead by walking Jason Castro. Dominguez followed with his double to centre field, which hit on the wall just inches shy of the home run line, to make it 5-1. The play was reviewed and upheld. Archer escaped the inning by striking out Chris Carter. "I didnt execute pitches," Archer said. "It had nothing to do with me not making that play at first base. Yeah, I was frustrated. Theres a ton of plays in a game. There were 40 pitches after that where I could have executed." Alex Presley drew a walk to start the fourth inning and chase Archer. He was replaced by Cesar Ramos, who was greeted with a single by Gonzalez. Ramos struck out Jonathan Villar before Fowlers two-run double to centre field pushed the lead to 7-1. Desmond Jennings singled with one out in the fifth before Longoria launched his eighth home run this season into the Crawford Boxes in left field to get Tampa Bay within 7-3. NOTES: The series wraps up on Sunday when Tampa Bay left-hander David Price opposes Brad Peacock. ... Kiermaier had two doubles on Saturday to give him 12 extra-base hits in 21 career games, which is the most in Rays history in such a span, surpassing the 11 Delmon Young had in 2007. ... Houston RHP Josh Fields strained a muscle in his right forearm in the eighth inning. Porter said he didnt have any more information on the severity of the injury.
