Astros Defeat Diamondbacks, 5-2
Houston first baseman José Abreu contributed to his team's 5-2 win over the Arizona Diamondbacks. Abreu, who finished 4th in the AL in RBI with 107 in 2014, went 2 for 3 with 2 runs scored to lead the offensive attack for the Astros. The winner in relief was Framber Valdez. He is now 2-2. The left-hander allowed no runs on 1 hit in 2.2 innings. Ryan Pressly earned the save, his 41st, for the Astros.

Early in the game, third baseman Alex Bregman had a 2-run double for Houston. It was his 28th double of the season and put the Astros on top, 2-1.

"This kind of win will certainly make our fans happy," Bregman told the Houston Herald.

The win makes Houston 78-65.
