Twins Lose to Astros, 4-3
The Houston Astros topped the Minnesota Twins by a score of 4-3. Leading the way was first baseman Danny Dyer. Dyer went 3-4 with a double and 2 singles. He scored 2 runs for the Astros. Kevin Ovens-Toots was the winning pitcher. Over 6 innings, he allowed 2 runs on 6 hits, with 2 walks and 3 strikeouts. Brian Thomas earned the save for Houston, his 8th of the year.

Houston used a well-timed hit by Jim Keefe to capture the win. The catcher socked a 2-run double in the top of the second inning to put the Astros ahead, 2-1. Though it was his only hit in 4 at-bats, it was important.

"Feels good to get the job done," Dyer said after the game.

The win has Houston at 10-12.
