Despite a fine performance by left fielder Travis Snider, the Detroit Tigers lost to the Houston Astros, 8-7. Snider went 3-5 with a home run and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. The win was credited to David Sanders in relief. His record improves to 3-0. Joe Sullivan took the loss. The 7th-place Astros now have a win-loss record of 59-75.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Larry Biittner? The Houston designated hitter had a 2-run double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Astros on top, 6-5. For the game, Biittner had 1 double and 2 singles in 4 at-bats.

"We'll relax tonight and enjoy this win," said Biittner.
