Kansas City Defeated By Astros, 5-3
The Houston Astros dealt the Kansas City Royals a 5-3 loss at Minute Maid Park. Alex Lobato was the star on offense. He was 2-2 with a double and 3 walks, while scoring 2. The winning pitcher was 32-year old left-handed pitcher Jesus Santana. He tossed 108 pitches over 6 innings, allowing 2 runs on 1 hit. The Astros improved their record to 50-55 with the win over Kansas City.

Danny Thomas's at-bat in the bottom of the fourth inning was a big one for Houston. Coming to bat with two out, runners on 1st and 2nd and Houston trailing 2-1, the center fielder hit a run-scoring single.

Houston manager Archie Scott said his team played a "no nonsense" game.
