Astros Rally Late to Nip Marlins
In a low-scoring tilt between the Houston Astros and the Miami Marlins, former first round draft pick Luis Castillo was the difference-maker. The Houston right-hander spearheaded the 2-1 win. The winning pitcher was Castillo, now 5-10. He tossed 8 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 2 and fanning 2. With the win, Houston has a record of 43-65. Miami falls to 38-69.

Houston used a timely hit from Joe Orsulak to get the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the ninth inning to put the Astros ahead, 2-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"It wasn't easy, but we got it done," said Orsulak.
