Pressly (2-3) allowed one earned run on one hit and one walk while striking out two to earn the win Thursday against the A's.
Pressly gave up the game-tying home run in the eighth inning and has now allowed an earned run in five of his last 10 appearances. He was bailed out by an Astros rally in the bottom of the eighth and picked up his second win of the season -- both of which have come in his last five outings.
