Silvino Castillo led Houston to a win over Texas. The final score was 7-5. Castillo collected 2 runs batted in, while going 2 for 3 at the plate. The right fielder also scored 2 times. Austin Huey converted his 5th save in 9 tries. The loss makes Texas 63-66.

Houston took a 6-4 lead on Fergus DeMatteo's 13th double of the season. The 2-run double, which DeMatteo hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Texas pitcher Luis Montoya visibly frustrated.

"Say want you want about this team, they play nine innings hard," said Houston manager Ramon Guerrero.
