Astros Win at Texas, 3-0
Houston and Texas duked it out and the Astros came out victorious.

Houston Astros starter Josh Norbe was in a rhythm all game. He led his team to a win over the Texas Rangers, 3-0. Norbe, now 4-3, was the winner. In 6 innings, he gave up 2 hits, while striking out 7, walking 1, and allowing no runs. Mark López got credit for the save for Houston. It was his 24th of the year.

It could have been a different outcome for Houston, had it not been for José González, the former first round draft pick . González contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the sixth inning to put Houston up, 1-0.

"We faced good pitching and still got it done," said González.

With the win, the Astros sit at 51-33.
