Astros Get Thrilling 3-2 Win
The Houston Astros took Drew Smyly's best shot and still were able to collect a win at Busch Stadium 1997-2005. The final score had Houston getting past the Cardinals, 3-2, in 11 innings. Smyly over 7.1 innings allowed 1 run on 3 hits, while striking out 8. Francis Martes snagged the win in relief. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 3 hits over 2 innings. He's now 2-0 on the season. The third-place Astros improved to 67-94.

Houston used a timely hit from Yuli Gurriel to get the win. The designated hitter stroked a run-scoring double in the top of the 11th inning to put the Astros ahead, 3-2. It was his only hit in 4 at-bats, but it made an impact.

"The game of baseball will test you," said , the Houston skipper. "This one tested us."
