In a tight game between the Tampa Bay Rays and the Houston Astros, pitcher Grant Holmes was terrific on the mound. The Tampa Bay right-hander helped his team to the 1-0 win. Yennier Cano earned his 25th save in 30 chances. The Rays now have a record of 42-78 with the win over Houston.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Samad Taylor? The Tampa Bay second baseman had a run-scoring double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Rays on top, 1-0. For the game, Taylor had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Grant made the big pitches when he needed to," said Tampa Bay manager Mark S.
