Notes & reviews

Gentry fouled the pitch and then it was ruled catcher's interference
Astros pitcher Paul Clemens ejected by HP umpire Toby Basner; there had been an issue between Jed Lowrie and the Astros the previous week when Lowrie had bunted in the first inning with the Athletics leading, 7-0; Clemens threw at Lowrie later in that game
