Astros Get Hard-Earned Win
The Houston Astros picked up a win at Minute Maid Park, downing the Arizona Diamondbacks, 5-4. On the mound for Houston was right-hander Luis Castillo, who played a pivotal role in the win. Houston is still hoping to get on a roll. The win is just their 7th in 18 games.

The Astros got a clutch hit from catcher Brayan Pena. In the bottom of the tenth, he delivered a run-scoring single to win the game for the Astros.

"I put my work in and trusted the process," said Castillo.
