Astros Go 10 Innings to Beat Oakland, 3-1
The Houston Astros faced a tough opponent in Oakland pitcher Jon Meger, but did just enough to pull out the victory at O.co Coliseum by a final score of 3-1. Meger went 7 innings and allowed no runs. Graham Burch picked up the win in relief, improving his record to 1-1. Jim Watson was tagged with the loss. The Astros go to 41-39, putting them third in the American League West Division.

Houston used the timely hitting of Alex Perez to capture the win. The first baseman socked a 2-run home run in the top of the tenth inning to put the Astros ahead, 3-1. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it was a big one.

"We all want to win," said Perez. "We all want to do our part."
