Joe Niekro brought his A-game to help Houston 1980 defeat the Oakland 1990 Athletics, 3-1. Bobby Sprowl, 2-0, earned the win in relief. He allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2.1 innings. Houston 1980 has won 5 consecutive games.

Houston 1980 went up, 2-1, on Cesar Cedeno's 6th home run of the season. The solo home run, which Cedeno hit in the top of the eighth, left Oakland 1990 pitcher Scott Sanderson shaking his head.

Niekro said his team "played with a purpose."
