Right-hander Anibal Sanchez mesmerized the Chicago Cubs while leading the Houston Astros to a 3-0 victory. Sanchez, the winner, moves to 20-5. He threw 6 innings of 4-hit ball, while fanning 8 and giving up 3 walks. The first-place Astros have won 8 consecutive games.

The Astros got an important contribution from third baseman Martin Prado, who in the bottom of the second punched a 2-1 fastball into left for a 2-run double. It was his 28th double of the season and put the Astros ahead, 3-0.

"It's fun coming to the ballpark," said Sanchez, "when you're on this kind of roll."
