Astros Cut Down Pirates, 2-0
Pittsburgh (GCL) wasted a solid 6-inning effort from starting pitcher Brian Hoover, losing to Houston (GCL), 2-0, at Ballpark of Belvedere. Getting the save was John Kay, his 8th. The last-place Astros now have a win-loss record of 22-46.

The game was on the line with two out in the top of the eighth inning, but John Kay didn't flinch. With a runner on 1st and Pittsburgh (GCL) trailing 1-0, Kay retired Wil Castillo to end the threat. "Nothing to it," said Kay, with a wink.
