    Brett Anderson bent over to stuff some things into his suitcase, stood up and bumped his head into the open door at the top of his locker.

    It was a fitting end to an up-and-down day for Oakland's starting pitcher who got a win against Houston, but also deflected two Astros hits off his left thumb and wrist and needed X-rays after the game.

    "It doesn't feel great," Anderson said of his wrist. "I got a couple other places on my body that doesn't feel good now either with my head now and my wrist."

    Anderson struck out 10 more Houston batters and the Athletics backed him with three home runs for a 9-3 win Sunday and a three-game sweep of the Astros.
