Astros Drop Twins, 8-7
Fans who congregated at Target Field were treated to extra-inning drama.

The Houston Astros defeated the Minnesota Twins, 8-7. Doing his part was first baseman Tony Rivera, who went 3-5 with a triple and a double. He drove in 4 runs and scored once. Houston reliever Kyle McPeak picked up the win, upping his record to 2-5. Jim Storer took the loss.

Houston used the timely hitting of Trevor Mock to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the tenth inning to put the Astros on top, 8-7. It was his only hit in 6 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"It's a satisfying feeling, to win like we did," said Mock.

The Astros raised their record to 40-72.
