With designated hitter Willie Valiente leading the charge, the Houston Astros got a road win over the Boston Red Sox, 9-2, in Game 2 of the Division Series. Valiente was 2-4 with a home run and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 3 at Fenway Park to help Houston force a 1-1 tie in the best-of-5 series.

In the top of the third, Houston right fielder Travis Gibb had a productive at-bat. With runners on 2nd and 3rd and two out, Gibb stroked a 2-run double to left-center. It made the score 3-1, Houston. For the game, he was 2 for 5 with a double, while adding 2 RBI.

Valiente said afterward that his team has grown over the course of the season, adding: "It feels good when a plan comes together."
