Astros Win, 7-4, Versus Baltimore
The Houston Astros grabbed a win, 7-4, over the Baltimore Orioles at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Houston center fielder Alek Thomas went 3 for 4 with 2 doubles. He drove in 3 runs and scored once. The win belonged to Kevin Kelly in relief. His record improves to 3-2. Packy Naughton took the loss for Baltimore. Gabe Speier was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 8 of 10 save opportunities.

Joey Ortiz was 1-2 with a walk for Houston. The 27-year old shortstop had a key at-bat in the top of the eighth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 4-4 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Greg Weissert. It was his 39th RBI of the season.

"No complaints from me," said Astros manager Logan F. "I like what I saw out there."

Houston is now 62-57, Baltimore 56-61.
