Espinoza Now 8-4 After Beating Indians
The Houston Astros went home winners at Minute Maid Park, thanks in large part to starter David Espinoza. Espinoza stifled the Cleveland Indians, enabling Houston to grab the 1-0 win. Houston, at 51-60, occupies first place in the American League South Division.

Espinoza worked his mojo for Houston. The hard-throwing right-hander allowed no runs on 3 hits over 7.1 innings of work.

Espinoza called winning a team effort. "It's not the same guy every time," he said. "It's the sum of the parts."
