Bethancourt went 1-for-4 with a two-run home run in Wednesday's 5-4 loss to the Astros.

He took Justin Verlander deep in the seventh inning to give Oakland a 3-1 lead, but the bullpen imploded in the ninth. Bethancourt's blast was his first homer of the season and first extra-base hit since May 14, and the 30-year-old is slashing .229/.282/.323 through 104 plate appearances since joining the A's.
