Cubs Stumble, Lose to Astros
The Houston Astros got a marvelous performance from pitcher Mike Oquist. The right-hander kept the Chicago (N) offense from ever getting much traction. The result was an impressive 8-1 Houston victory at Minute Maid Park. Oquist picked up the win for Houston, going 6 innings. He gave up 1 run on 8 hits. He now sports a record of 5-8. The Astros, at 40-44, inhabit 7th place in the National League.

In the bottom of the second, Houston right fielder Bunny Roser had a productive at-bat. With the bases loaded and no one out, Roser stroked a 2-run single to center. It made the score 4-0, Houston. For the game, he went 2 for 3 with 2 singles. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2.

"We were able to put some runs on the board," said Roser after the game.
