Greenwell 3-3 to Power Astros Offense
Astrodome was the site for NL action featuring the Pittsburgh Pirates and Houston Astros.

Mike Greenwell was instrumental in his team's 7-4 triumph over the Pittsburgh Pirates. The third baseman went 3-3 with a home run, a triple, a double, and was hit by a pitch, while scoring 2 runs and driving in 3 for the Houston Astros. Houston reliever John Wetteland picked up the win to move to 8-5. Rob Dibble suffered the loss.

Houston grabbed the momentum in the bottom of the fifth, when Greenwell, who is tied for 4th in the NL with a .406 on-base percentage, hit a 2-run triple. His 3rd triple of the season put the Astros out in front, 4-2.

"We can always improve and get better, but we're feeling confident after that win," said Greenwell.

The winning streak has now reached 4 games for the Astros.
