Houston reliever Bryan Clark got the win, raising his record to 3-0. Jeff Manship was tagged with the loss. The win makes Houston 35-44.

The game was still up for grabs in the bottom of the 11th. With no one out, Thomas hit a fastball from Jeff Manship for a solo home run. The Astros, in dramatic fashion, had a walk-off win.

"That was intense," said Thomas.
