Houston rode a fine outing from starter Bill Black to victory over the Texas Rangers at Globe Life Field. The final score was 4-1. The victory gives Houston a record of 90-51.

Black was effective for Houston, seldom allowing the Rangers to square up a pitch. The left-hander tossed 85 pitches over 8 innings. He limited Texas to just 1 run on 3 hits.

"I made some pitches when I had to," said Black.
