Correa's RBI single in 12th lifts Astros over Athletics 6-5
HOUSTON (AP) — Carlos Correa had three hits and his RBI single with one out in the 12th inning lifted the Houston Astros to a 6-5 victory over the Oakland Athletics on Saturday.
After Jed Lowrie hit a tying home run with two outs in the ninth for Oakland, the Astros came back to win.
George Springer started Houston's 12th with a double off Ryan Madson (2-2) and advanced to third on a sacrifice bunt by Jose Altuve. Correa then shot a single down the right field line to give Houston its seventh win in eight games.
Scott Feldman (3-3) plunked Khris Davis with two outs in the 12th before a single by Yonder Alonso. But Feldman retired Marcus Semien to end the inning.
