Cabrera Stars as Astros Top Red Sox, 5-4
The Houston Astros defeated the Boston Red Sox, 5-4, in National League action at Minute Maid Park. Melky Cabrera pulled his weight. The 8-year veteran went 3 for 4 with a home run and a double. He scored 3 runs and drove in 2. Houston reliever Jeff Reardon picked up the win, raising his record to 1-0. Aaron Small was tagged with the loss. Houston is now 45-51, Boston 35-62.

The game was at a stalemate until center fielder Joe Orsulak came to bat in the bottom of the eighth. Facing Boston pitcher Aaron Small, he hit a 2-2 curveball for a run-scoring single. It was a game-changer, putting Houston on top, 5-4.

"It was a good night for them and a bad night for us," said Boston manager Doug Morton.
