The Houston Astros besoiled an otherwise fine performance by St. Louis third baseman Mike Lowell by beating the Cardinals, 9-4, at Busch Stadium. Lowell was 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles. He drove in 2 runs and scored once. Jake Peavy picked up the win with 7.2 innings of work. He allowed 4 runs on 6 hits, while walking 4 and striking out 6. On the season, he is now 5-13. Houston, at 47-85, sits in 9th place in the National League.

Houston used the hitting of Brayan Pena to pick up the win. The catcher clubbed a solo home run in the top of the second inning to put the Astros on top, 2-0. For the game, Pena had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"It was a solid, all-around game for us," said Houston manager Claybor Finley.
