Astros Use Late Rally to Win 6th Straight
Houston (GCL) Astros starter Elard Spierenburg turned in a top-notch performance against the Pittsburgh (GCL) Pirates at Ballpark of Belvedere. The result was a win for the Astros, 4-1. The winner was Houston (GCL) reliever Donnie Edwards, now 1-0. The loser was Jerry Magana. Humberto Rosado earned the save for Houston (GCL), his 2nd.

Houston (GCL) took a 4-1 lead on Cesar Mejia's 1st home run of the season. The 3-run home run, which Mejia hit in the bottom of the eighth, left Pittsburgh (GCL) pitcher Alex Garcia visibly frustrated.

Afterward, Astros manager Edgardo Avalos said, "We had some good at-bats, some big at-bats in some key situations."

With the loss, Pittsburgh (GCL) sinks to 2-4.
