The Houston Astros beat the Minnesota Twins by a score of 5-2. Houston pitcher Jimmy Edlin deserved the lion's share of the credit. Edlin threw 7.0 innings of 6-hit ball for the Astros. In 7 innings, Edlin surrendered 6 hits, while striking out 6 and walking 0. He allowed 1 run. Josh Sandoval earned save number 6 this season.

The Astros got an important contribution from first baseman Jack Christie, who in the bottom of the second knocked a 1-0 sinker into center for a 2-run double. It was his 2nd double of the season and put the Astros ahead, 4-1.

"I felt we were ready to go," said Houston manager Dave DaSilva. "Our pregame was pretty good."

The defeat makes Minnesota 4-13.
