Astros Edge Past Mets, 4-3
Astros catcher Donovan Butler left his imprint on his team's 4-3 win over the New York N (GCL) Mets. Butler was 3 for 4 with a home run and a triple. He scored 3 times for Houston (GCL) in the contest. Houston (GCL) is now 38-19, while New York N (GCL) is 28-29.

Had Alan Blondell not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the eighth, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 3rd, Blondell hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 4-3, in favor of the Astros.

In postgame remarks, Butler applauded his team's "business-like approach."
