Rodríguez Stars for Colt .45s in 12-4 Win
A 4-RBI performance from the slick-fielding center fielder Juan Rodríguez helped the Houston Colt .45s beat the Louisville Redbirds, 12-4. Louisville falls to 9-19.

In the bottom of the fourth, Houston catcher Edgardo Vázquez had a productive at-bat. With the bases loaded and one out, Vázquez stroked a run-scoring single to center. It made the score 4-3, Houston. For the game, he was 2-6 with 2 singles.

"Winning breeds more winning, I guess," said Rodríguez.
