Rays Lose to Astros, 6-3
Tampa Bay shortstop Xander Bogaerts had a terrific game, but it still wasn't enough to get his team a win. Bogaerts was 3 for 3 with 3 singles and a walk, even as Houston beat the Rays, 6-3. Bogaerts was named the player of the game despite the loss. The Rays, now 70-64, have lost 4 straight.

Jermaine Palacios was 2 for 4 with 2 singles for Houston. The 23-year old shortstop had a key at-bat in the bottom of the second. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring ground out off James Paxton. It was his 33rd RBI of the season.

"We took advantage of our opportunities," Palacios told the Houston Today. "It's as simple as that."
