Houston Astros' Alex Bregman is congratulated by third base coach Gary Pettis after hitting a two-run home run during the fourth inning of a baseball game against the Oakland Athletics in Oakland, Calif., Friday, July 8, 2022. – José Urquidy allowed four hits over a career-high eight innings to win his third straight decision, helping the Houston Astros keep rolling with an 8-3 victory over the Oakland Athletics on Friday night.
“You get knocked down a lot in this game and you have to get back up right away and turn the page and move forward,” Bregman said. “Our guys did a really good job of resetting, refocusing and getting back in there and getting us a lead. And Urquidy did a great job of keeping them there after we did that.”The American League’s leader in run support, Urquidy was mostly dominant in his first career win in six tries against the A’s.
“I was attacking the zone and I was throwing strikes early in the count, That helped me a lot,” Urquidy said. “We have a lot of talent here and in most of my games they hit a lot. It’s something very, very comfortable for me.”“He’s been good the last four or five starts,” Astros manager Dusty Baker said. “They were putting the ball in play and sometimes soft contact is the way to go. The more strikeouts you get, the more pitches you have to throw.
