Astros Earn 8-7 Win Versus Rangers
The Houston Astros beat the Texas Rangers, 8-7, at Minute Maid Park. The win was due in part to third baseman Eric Chotkowski, who went 2 for 3 with a home run and 2 walks, while scoring 3. The win belongs to Mike Hurst in relief. His record improves to 1-1. Wayne Perry took the loss for Texas. Texas drops to 7-10.

Eric Katz was the walk-off hero for Houston. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Astros right fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

"Winning never gets dull," said Chotkowski.
