Astros Stay Hot, Beat Cardinals, 2-1
In a low-scoring contest, Houston pitcher Ray Ward was marvelous, enabling his team to nab a 2-1 win. In 7 innings, Ward surrendered 5 hits, while striking out 3 and walking 2. He allowed 1 run. Danny Kowalke recorded the save for Houston, his 19th of the season.

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 second, when center fielder Jack Womer hit a run-scoring single. The single came off Tablighat Hajiev and made the score 1-0, Astros. Womer was 1 for 4.

"I pretty much put my pitches where I wanted to," said Ward.

Houston has now reeled off 6 straight wins.
