To tie the Astros late, to fall in 11th on a strange game; Losing Treinen

HOUSTON – Even for the masters of the last comeback, the A's faced great difficulty on Tuesday, and they nearly did well, taking the lead in 11th place only to see Blake Treinen getting closer to him. The first time in almost three months and an unusual game make 6-5 winners of the Astros.

Treinen walked Josh Reddick to open the inning, then Kyle Tucker pushed Reddick to third with a base shot and a tapper in the middle Tony Kemp sent Reddick when receiver Jonathan Lcuroy failed to drop the label in time after Marcus Semien's return home.

"I scented it," Lucroy said. "I tried to make a quick tag, it was a one-hop, and I could not get the ball in the glove." Even though I had done it, I do not think the He had a pretty good slip. "

Alex Bregman hit a rifle out of the plate that rolled foul and then just again as Lucroy tried to coral, then As Lucroy went to score Bregman, he lost the ball and he bounced out of the marble referee David Rackley. When Lucroy picked him up and went first, his shot took a look at Bregman's helmet and Tucker came back with the winning series, ending the three-game winning streak. Oakland

"I really screwed that up." The guys fought … and I dropped them behind the plate.

The play is reviewed, because the A's thought Lucroy could have scored Bregman before the balloon left him, but the call was not canceled. jumped out of the way and the bullet came out of my hand, "said Lucroy. "It's there that we played at dodgeball for a few seconds – it was just a big mess, a big zoo behind the plate." It's the first time in eight years, Hope this is the last time. "

Treinen (5-2) had not stopped since April 18 and had not lost since the April 6. they shoved it, "said manager Bob Melvin." He was so good. It was going to end at one point, but unfortunately it ended when he did well and did what he wanted to do in situations with men on the base.

The former enemy of the A, Justin Verlander, held six innings and they remained aimless in the ninth inning. It was then that Oakland was seconded for four innings, Semien offering a tied double and a brace of play.

And in the 11th inning, Stephen Piscotty continued to do that. What he did: For the fourth consecutive game, Oakland's Right fielder completed a homer, a solo shot that pushed the A's to the front 5-4

" Incredible, "said Melvin. "Sitting there looking at him, you have a good feeling about him – he's been in this situation so many times and he's been there."

After the departure of Verlander, thanks to the 33 A balls Chris Devenski managed a seventh without scoring and Joe Smith did the same thing in the eighth before Oakland opened the ninth with consecutive singles of Ken Giles , one from Mark Canha, another from star Jed Lowrie and the third from Khris Davis, scoring Canha

Héctor Rondón succeeded Giles, and Olson struck Lowrie with a base shot on the right. Nick Martini's goal replaced Matt Olson in second, and Semien offered his third extra goal of the night to send the two riders.

Justin Verlander worked six scoreless innings and did not need When Davis was called on a swing shot of three control that seemed questionable, Melvin had finally had enough, and he went out to bark At the marble referee David Rackley, who Mevin mentioned some of the iffy shots the previous night against Dustin Fowler, he too, saying, "You just have a level of frustration."

Verlander is 7-1 with a 2.04 MRE against the A's in his last nine starts after allowing only three hits, walking no and eliminating six on Tuesday. For someone to need a reminder, he went 4-0 with a 1.24 ERA and 49 strikeouts in five playoff games against the A from 2006 to 13.

The starter of Sean Manaea was not bad – he only allowed three points – but he did not do it very much in the game, going four innings more. Bregman dealt him a solo homer in the first run, Bregman's third round in 16 years, and George Springer offered two RBI singles. Bregman blocked Houston's Bregman-Springer-Springer-Bregman offensive attack with a single-shot homer of Emilio Pagan in seventh.

Gonzalez left after the first; At the start of the run, Dustin Fowler hit him on the left arm while trying to steal the second base.

Before the match, the team sent Frankie Montas to Triple-A Nashville to continue pitching through the All-Star. Pause. Trevor Cahill will come out of the DL to start on Thursday.
