A's Vs. Astros Lineups: Bob Melvin Makes Changes to Bottom of Order

The A's bounced back nicely Tuesday night with a 4-3 win over the Astros in 11 innings, and they'll now look to take a crucial road series from Houston. 

After being embarrassed in an 11-1 loss Monday, the A's can head back home with a happy flight by winning two of three from the current leaders of the AL West. Manager Bob Melvin isn't making many changes to his lineup, too. 

The first six hitters in the A's lineup remain the same, but Robbie Grossman, Chris Herrmann and Jurickson Profar will replace Chad Pinder, Josh Phegley and Franklin Barreto. 

Here are the full lineups for the A's-Astros game, which will be broadcast on NBC Sports California and the MyTeams app. Coverage begins at 10:30 a.m. PT, with first pitch at 11:10.
