  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Houston Astros (26-21) 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 1 1
San Francisco Giants (24-23) 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 5 X 8 11 2
San Francisco Beats Houston, 8-1
The Houston Astros got a sterling performance from pitcher Hunter Brown, but the San Francisco Giants still prevailed, 8-1. Brown threw 6.1 innings of 2-hit ball. Reliever Chris Martin picked up the win. His record improves to 1-1. Avery Weems took the loss. San Francisco is 24-23 and Houston, with the loss, 26-21.

Had Nelson Velazquez not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and the bases loaded, Velazquez hit a 2-run single. That made the score 2-1, in favor of the Giants.

"We'll need a much better effort, the next time out," said losing manager Logan F.
