<p>Fister scatters seven hits and Altuve hits his seventh home run in win over A's. </p> <p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.crawfishboxes.com/">Houston Astros</a> have been on the wrong end of just about everything this season, especially in tight games. The Astros were 1-4 in one-run games coming into Sunday. The Astros notched their second one-run win in today's game, defeating the Oakland <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.athleticsnation.com/">Athletics</a> 2-1.</p>
<p><span>Doug Fister</span> did exactly what the Astros need in his fifth start this season, he kept the game close. He actually wasn't even better than that, holding the A's scoreless through six innings. The A's threatened in the second and third inning with runners in scoring position but Fister was able to survive.</p>
<p>The Astros side the offense continued to struggle of course minus <span>Jose Altuve</span> who hit his fourth lead-off home run of the season.</p>
<p>The bottom of the lineup contributed to scoring in the third inning. <span>Jason Castro</span> singled and was followed by an Altuve Single. A force out put runners on the corners (following a reviewed call), allowing <span>Colby Rasmus</span> to drive in what turned out to be the winning run with a sacrifice fly.</p>
<p>The Astros went down in order over the last five innings, minus a <span>Marwin Gonzalez</span> walk in the ninth inning.</p>
<p><span>Luke Gregerson</span> had a 1-2-3 inning to pick up his fifth save of the season.</p>

<h4 style="white-space: normal;">Pitching Matchup</h4>
<p style="white-space: normal;" id="paragraph1">RHP <span>Doug Fister</span> (1-3, 5.56 ERA, 1.50 WHIP) vs. LHP <span>Rich Hill</span> (3-2, 2.42 ERA, 1.27 WHIP)</p>
<h4 style="white-space: normal;">Preview</h4>
<p style="white-space: normal;" id="paragraph2">The TCB staff has started talking about draft picks. That is what it has come to. The Astros went 7-17 in April a year after Houston rode a 15-7 record in April almost all the way to a division title. This isn't the end for sure, but the Astros have dug themselves a mighty deep hole.</p>
<p style="white-space: normal;">That hole looks even bigger then the Astros must rely on Doug Fister to save face and avoid a sweep at the hands of the Oakland Athletics.</p>
<p style="white-space: normal;">Fister is coming off back-to-back solid starts for the Astros. He has allowed just five runs over his last 12 innings of work. The home run ball has been a trouble for Fister, he has given up a long ball in all four of his starts this season.</p>
<p style="white-space: normal;">Fister is 2-4 with a 3.32 ERA in seven starts at Oakland Coliseum in his career. Current A's are batting .284 (33x116) against Fister with a .347 BABIP, 2.236 FIP, 17.07 K%, and 4.00 BB%.</p>

<p style="white-space: normal;">Rich Hill is in his first season with the Oakland Athletics after bouncing between the <a style="background-color: #ffffff;" class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.federalbaseball.com/">Nationals</a>, <a style="background-color: #ffffff;" class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.overthemonster.com/">Red Sox</a>, and the minor leagues. Hill, 36, has found some magic this season -- allowing just seven runs over 26 innings. He is coming off his best start of the season, pitching seven scoreless innings against the <a style="background-color: #ffffff;" class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.blessyouboys.com/">Tigers</a> on April 26.</p>
<p style="white-space: normal;">Hill is 0-3 with an 8.31 ERA in five games (three starts) at Oakland Coliseum in his career. Current Astros are 0.125 (1x8) against Fister with .167 BABIP, 4.152 FIP, 20.00 K%, and 20.00 BB%.</p>

<p>The Astros pull out tandem pitching in Chris Devenski's first major league start.</p> <p>Nothing has clicked for the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.crawfishboxes.com/">Astros</a> this season. Houston is the only team in Major League Baseball that hasn't won back-to-back games this season. Thus, manager A.J. Hinch started to make changes. The first of those changes was moving <span>Chris Devenski</span> to the rotation.</p>
<p>Devenski made his first major league start on Saturday at Oakland Coliseum. Devenski and the pitcher he replaced, <span>Scott Feldman</span>, pitched eight strong innings, but the offense wasn't able to bust through against <span>Jesse Hahn</span>.</p>
<p>The only offense in the game came in the second inning. Friday's hero <span>Yonder Alonso</span> started the inning with a double. Devenski then walked the bases loaded, setting up <span>Billy Burns</span> to smack a line drive single to left -- scoring two.</p>
<p>Devenski reloaded the bases by walking <span>Jed Lowrie</span>, but he induced <span>Josh Reddick</span> to pop out to right field to end the inning.</p>
<p>The A's threatened again in the fourth, with a double from <span>Josh Phegley</span> and a single from Marcus Semien. Devenski retired Burns and Lowrie to end the inning.</p>
<p><span>Carlos Correa</span> showed some life in the seventh with a double. <span>John Axford</span> forced <span>Tyler White</span> to pop out with two runners on to end the inning.</p>
<p>The Astros loaded the bases against the A's closer <span>Ryan Madson</span> in the ninth. <span>Jose Altuve</span> walked, Correa walked and Rasmus singled.</p>
<p>It was all for not as <span>Evan Gattis</span> grounded into a game-ending double play. The Astros offense shot itself in the foot by grounding into three double plays in the game.</p>
<p>Devenski finished the day allowing two runs on five hits and three walked while striking out four over five innings. Scott Feldman pitched three scoreless innings and struck out three.</p>
<p>Hahn pitched 6 2/3 innings, allowing three hits, striking out four, and walking two.</p>

<h4 style="white-space: normal;">Preview</h4>
<p style="white-space: normal;">Nothing went right in the final two innings of Friday's game. The only go thing is the Astros don't have to wait long to make up for their mistakes. The Astros get back to work just a little over 12 hours since yesterday's game.</p>
<p style="white-space: normal;">One of the few bright spots this season, <span>Chris Devenski</span> gets a chance to take a bigger role with the Astros on Saturday. Devenski replaced <span>Scott Feldman</span> in the starting rotation. Devenski came to the Astros as part of the <span>Brett Myers</span> trade with the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.southsidesox.com/">Chicago White Sox</a> in 2012.</p>
<p style="white-space: normal;">Devenski was originally slated to be a starter for the Astros' Triple-A team before being called into duty as the long man early in the season. Devenski has thrived in the bullpen, allowing just one run over 13 2/3 innings.</p>
<p style="white-space: normal;">Jesse Hahn starts for the A's as the team struggles with some injuries. Hahn came as part of the <span>Derek Norris</span> trade with the San Deigo <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.gaslampball.com/">Padres</a>. Hahn was 6-6 with a 3.35 ERA in 16 starts with the A's in 2015. Hahn faced the Astros once in 2015. He allowed three runs on five hits over six innings on May 20 in Houston.</p>
<p><span>At the Oakland Coliseum, Hahn was 3-3 with a 3.08 ERA in 10 home starts in 2015. </span></p>

<p>Great outing from Mike Fiers ✔ 4-2 lead going into the bottom of the eight ✔ Ken Giles blow up ✔ Walk-off home run ✔ It appears the Astros have everything to push fans over the edge. </p> <p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.crawfishboxes.com/">Houston Astros</a> left Seattle on a good note, and for seven and a half inning it appeared the team was building up on that success. The Astros led 4-2 with setup man <span>Ken Giles</span> entering the game. Everything went downhill from there, as the Astros lost 7-4 on Friday night at Oakland Column.</p>
<p>Giles gave up a no-dought home run to Marcus Semien. Billy Burns singled, stole second and moved to third on an error. Former Astros Jed Lowrie drove in Burns with a sacrifice fly to right. Just like that the game when from the Astros cruising to a victory to a tied ballgame in a matter of three batters.</p>
<p>The icing on the cake was <span>Carlos Gomez</span> being thrown out attempting to stretch a double into a triple to start the night inning and <span>Yonder Alonso</span> thumping a <span>Pat Neshek</span> pitch for a three-run home run to end the game.</p>
<p>The ending of the game overshadows the excellent outing that <span>Mike Fiers</span> posted for the Astros. Fiers allowed two earned runs on seven hits, walking zero and striking out five.</p>
<p>The Astros tangled with <span>Sean Manaea</span> in his first career start, the Astros touched the uber-prospect for four runs over five innings.</p>
<p><span>Evan Gattis</span> started the scoring with his first home run of the season in the second inning. The Astros were able to drive in runners in scoring position in the sixth inning. <span>George Springer</span> was hit by a pitch and <span>Carlos Correa</span> walked to start the inning. Gattis singled in Springer, sending Manaea to the bench.</p>
<p><span>Tyler White</span> snapped his funk with the second RBI single in the inning. <span>Marwin Gonzalez</span> hit a ground rule double to score one more run, but the ground rule kept a fifth run from scoring. <span>Erik Kratz</span> struck out to end the inning.</p>
