Losing Streak Continues for Astros with 4-1 Loss to Red Sox
The Boston Red Sox topped the Houston Astros, 4-1, in American League action at Minute Maid Park. The game was highlighted by the performance of Boston pitcher Justin Whitesack. Whitesack, now 4-1, was the winner. In 6 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 10, walking 1, and allowing 1 run. Danny Schneible collected his 1st save.

Boston used a well-timed hit by Jarrett Mordecai to capture the win. The first baseman socked a run-scoring double in the top of the sixth inning to put the Red Sox ahead, 2-1. Though it was his only hit in 3 at-bats, it was important.

"You can't get too high when things go well, or too low when things go bad. Right now, I'm just happy we got the win," Mordecai told the Boston Observer.

The victory gives Boston a record of 23-11.
