Houston Hands Colorado 2-1 Defeat
Houston Astros starter Josh Beckett turned in an exceptional performance against the Colorado Rockies at Coors Field, resulting in a Houston win, 2-1. Beckett yielded 1 run over 6 innings to notch the win. He scattered 3 hits, walked 1, and struck out 8. His record improves to 11-8. With the win, the Astros have a record of 80-63.

Houston used the bat of Will Ford to get the win. The designated hitter hit a curveball from Derek Lowe out of the park for a 2-run home run. The blast came in the top of the fourth inning and put the Astros on top, 2-0. It was Ford's lone hit, but it left a mark.

"I was a little disappointed," said Colorado manager Sal G. "We could've and should've scored more runs."
