  1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 R H E
Houston Astros (59-69) 0 0 0 0 1 1 0 0 0 2 4 1
Los Angeles Angels (73-56) 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 2 X 3 12 0
Angels Score Late, Upend Astros, 3-2
Los Angeles starter Matt Boyd pitched effectively against the Houston Astros at Angel Stadium of Anaheim. The left-hander led his team to a 3-2 win. Jeurys Familia was credited with the save. He has now successfully converted 16 of 16 save opportunities. The winning streak has now reached 4 games for the Angels.

Had Evan Longoria not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and runners on 1st and 2nd, Longoria hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 3-2, in favor of the Angels.

"Matt's tempo and rhythm were good," said Angels manager Steph Villeneuve. "He was the key to us winning."
