Astros Use Late-Game Magic to Beat Marlins, 9-7
The Houston Astros topped the Miami Marlins, 9-7, with youngster Joe Orsulak playing a key role. Orsulak went 2 for 4 with a triple and a walk. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3 for the Astros in the win. Robert Carson nailed down his 5th save. The Marlins fall to 8-13 and continue their unimpressive start to the 2000 season.

Larry Biittner, who was drafted in the 3rd round of the 1998 draft, helped out the Houston cause in the bottom of the seventh inning with a run-scoring single. For the game, the designated hitter was 1 for 2.

"We got the victory," said Orsulak. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."
