Houston is in a bit of a tailspin, losing eight of their last 10 games. They put Devenski on the mound today, who has been solid in 13.2 innings of work thus far, but they face Hahn, who is making his season debut. That could lead to some struggles for Houston at the plate, as they won’t have much film to go on. Look for Oakland to manufacture some runs for Hahn to grind out a win.
