Berkman Lifts Astros to 5-3 Triumph
Lance Berkman was a major factor in the 5-3 Houston win over Oakland. The Astros left fielder went 3-3 with a home run, 2 singles, and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. The Athletics, 12-14, continue their sluggish start to the 2014 campaign.

Jose Altuve, who is rated as the 9th best prospect by BNN, helped out the Houston cause in the bottom of the third inning with a run-scoring ground out. For the game, the designated hitter was 1 for 5.

"We played a good game and came out on top," said Altuve.
