George Arias powered the Houston Astros to a win over the St. Louis Cardinals. The final score was 8-2. The Houston first baseman was a force to be reckoned with. He banged out 2 extra-base hits, including 1 home run and 1 double. At 58-74, the Astros are currently 7th in the National League.

Houston used the hitting of Larry Biittner to pick up the win. The center fielder clubbed a 2-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Astros on top, 2-1. For the game, Biittner had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"We didn't help ourselves, it's as simple as that," said losing manager David Mandel.
