Astros Blowout A’s 13-2

The Houston Astros secured a dominant 13-2 victory over the Athletics in the penultimate game of the 2026 MLB season. Houston built an early lead through home runs by Isaac Paredes, Jeremy Peña, and a three-run blast from Yordan Alvarez off Athletics starter Jack Perkins. Perkins took the loss after conceding six runs across five innings.

Athletics hitters managed only two runs against Astros starter Hayden Wesneski, with Zack Gelof driving in a run in the fourth inning and Tommy White adding an RBI single in the seventh. Houston's potent offense capitalized on Athletics pitching struggles to comfortably close out the lopsided win.
