Astros Win in Glorious Fashion
The Minute Maid Park faithful were treated to an exciting walk-off win.

The Houston Astros beat the Los Angeles Angels, 5-4, at Minute Maid Park. Houston second baseman Josh Harrison earned player of the game honors with an outstanding performance. He went 2-4 with a home run, while scoring 2 times and driving in 2. Houston reliever A.J. Minter got the win, raising his record to 1-2. Aroldis Chapman was tagged with the loss.

Xander Bogaerts, who is tied for 2nd in the AL in hits with 36, chipped in for Houston with a run-scoring single in the bottom of the ninth. For the game, the shortstop had 2 hits in 5 at-bats with 1 home run, 1 single, 1 run scored, and 2 runs batted in.

"This place was rockin'," Harrison said.

The defending champion Astros have struggled a bit to find their groove this season, but improve to 13-13 with the win.
