Big Day for Ekins as Astros Down Cardinals, 8-5
The St. Louis Cardinals opened their 2059 season with a disappointing 8-5 loss to the Houston Astros at Busch Stadium. Center Fielder Justin Ekins was a big part of the win for Houston. He was 3-4 with 2 doubles and was hit by a pitch. He scored 2 times and drove in 4.

Ekins contributed a big hit, a 2-run double, for Houston in the top of the fifth. With his team trailing 2-1, Ekins took a sinker from Ethan Minks and stroked the double to right. His 2nd double of the season allowed the Astros to leap in front, 3-2.

"What's not to like about a win?" said Ekins.
