Royals Lose, 6-1, at Minute Maid Park
|
The exploits of first baseman Tsuginori Kakuta, who is tied for 9th in the AL in bases on balls with 102, helped the Houston Astros defeat the Kansas City Royals, 6-1. Kakuta was 2-2 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 2 runs. Manuel Núñez picked up the win with 6 innings of work. He allowed 1 earned run on 5 hits, while walking 2 and striking out 4. On the season, he is now 10-7. The Astros improve their record to 92-65 with the win over Kansas City.
With scoring opportunities rare, the Astros had to cash in when they had the chance. One such opportunity presented itself in the bottom of the first, when left fielder Dennis Henley hit a 2-run double. The double came off Enrique Vázquez and made the score 2-0, Astros. Henley went 1-4 with a double, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once.
Henley called the win the result of "everyone being in sync."
