Smith Helps Astros Run Win Streak to 3
A 4-RBI performance from the 23-year old first baseman Dominic Smith helped the Houston Astros beat the Baltimore Orioles, 14-10. Houston reliever Dovydas Neverauskas picked up the win, upping his record to 7-5. Jeff Manship shouldered the loss. Tony Zych, credited with the save, is now 18 for 23 in save opportunities.

The Astros got a big at-bat from right fielder Brett Eibner. For the game, Eibner was 3-5 with 3 singles and a walk, while adding 5 RBI. In the top of the eighth, with the bases loaded, he stroked a 2-run single. His 22nd hit of the season gave Houston a 10-8 lead.

"We maximized our offense today," said Houston skipper Temp GM. "That makes everyone's life easier."

Houston has now won 3 straight, while the Orioles have lost 3 in a row.
