Houston (GCL) Triumphs with Late Surge
The Astros grabbed a win, 7-4, at Roger Dean Stadium, overcoming a fine effort from St. Louis (GCL) pitcher Dave Thornton. Thornton went 6.1 innings and allowed 1 run. The winner in relief was Jose Gonzalez. He is now 1-0. The right-hander allowed no runs on 2 hits in 3 innings. John Kay earned the save for Houston (GCL), his 6th.

Houston (GCL) used the timely hitting of Jim Unknown to seize the win. The third baseman stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the ninth inning to put the Astros on top, 5-4. It was his only hit in 1 at-bat, but it was a game-changer.

"We'll kick back tonight and enjoy this win," said Unknown.

Houston (GCL), with the win, sits at 20-43.
