Big Game from Diaz Not Enough, Astros Lose
The inspired effort of Houston catcher Yainer Diaz was not enough to prevent a loss, 8-6, to the Texas Rangers. Diaz went 4-5 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3. Jon Gray, who went 7 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 4 runs on 8 hits, while walking 1 and striking out 3. His record now stands at 2-0. Texas goes to 8-7.

Texas used a timely hit from Jonah Heim to get the win. The catcher stroked a bases-clearing double in the top of the seventh inning to put the Rangers ahead, 6-4. It was his only hit in 5 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"Nice to put this one in the win column," said Heim.
