Astros Topple Phillies with Late Rally
Shawn Dubin never let Philadelphia get something going. The Houston right-hander commanded his fastball in pitching the Astros to a 3-1 win. Houston reliever Chris Wright was the winner. His record is now 7-0. Hans Crouse took the loss. With the victory, the Astros upped their record to 72-59.

Houston used a timely hit from Kyle Tucker to get the win. The right fielder stroked a 2-run double in the top of the eighth inning to put the Astros ahead, 3-1. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Tucker.
