Astros Bang Out 9-6 Win Versus Baltimore
Baltimore got a terrific game from left fielder Ben Grega. It wasn't enough, though, to prevent the team from falling to Houston, 9-6. Grega went 2 for 4 with a home run and a walk, while scoring 2 and driving in 2. Houston reliever Ray de la Rosa was the winner. His record is now 3-1. Troy Harper took the loss. Earning the save was Ruben Blanco. He's now cashed in 7 of 11 save opportunities.

The Astros beat the Orioles in part due to timely hitting. Case in point: the two-out single George Waldrop produced in the bottom of the seventh. Batting against Vince Conney, Waldrop gave his team the lead, 6-5, when he hit a 2-run single.

"We'll take this win and move on," said Waldrop.

The win makes Houston 68-72.
