Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Jeremy Pena? The Houston shortstop had a run-scoring double in the top of the second inning to put the Astros on top, 1-0. For the game, Pena had 1 double and 2 singles in 5 at-bats.

"It feels good, just a great win all around," Pena said after the game.
