Kim 4-for-5 to Power Astros Offense
Houston third baseman Ha-seong Kim helped his team beat the Tampa Bay Rays, 8-7. Kim, who leads the AL in triples with 9, went 4 for 5 for the Astros. Jhoan Duran was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 3 of 3 save opportunities. With the win, Houston raised its record to 64-59.

Steven Kwan drew 2 walks in 5 trips to the plate for Houston. The 27-year old left fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fifth. With two out and the bases loaded, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring walk off Mason Barnett. It was his 51st walk of the season.

"I keep on showing up every day and trying to put up good at-bats and find good pitches to hit," said Kim.
