Miller hadn’t pitched in five days when he was summoned with one out and two runners on base in the eighth to protect a one-run lead. He struck out two batters to preserve the lead going into the ninth. The A’s would extend the lead to five runs in a long top of the ninth before Miller came back out for the final frame. He gave up a triple to Trent Grisham, who scored on a groundout, then struck out two more batters to covert his 11th save of the season.

Caratini deserves better than being the backup to a quality catcher in Yainer Diaz, but not enough teams realized it when he was a free agent two winters ago. The Astros used both guys tonight, with Diaz going 2-for-4 with two RBI as a DH. Caratini is batting .255/.356/.431 in 59 plate appearances in his limited role.

He’s the better defender of the two, and he’s done a nice job offensively in hitting .245/.304/.426 with four homers and 13 RBI in 102 plate appearances.
