					| Astros Edge Twins, 8-7 |  
					| The inspired effort of Minnesota shortstop Yonetoshi Muranaka was not enough to prevent a loss, 8-7, to the Houston Astros. Muranaka hit 2 home runs, while adding 3 RBI and scoring twice. Houston reliever Danny Bustos picked up the win to move to 3-2. Steffen Joseph suffered the loss. Bill Dillard was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 4 of 11 save opportunities. 
 In the bottom of the fourth, Ian Jarvis delivered a clutch hit. With two gone and the bases loaded, the Houston catcher hit a 2-run  single, putting the Astros in front, 8-7.
 
 "We put a lot of pressure on ourselves," Jarvis told a Houston Citizen reporter. "Sometimes we just need to relax."
 
 Houston, with the win, sits at 32-68.
