Astros Stumble, Lose to Orioles
The Baltimore Orioles downed the Houston Astros, 8-1, at Minute Maid Park. Stellar pitching by Dave Christie had a lot to do with it. The left-hander handcuffed his opponent all game. The Orioles go to 44-64 with the win.

Baltimore second baseman Ramiro Amaya contributed a timely at-bat in the top of the fifth. With two down, he hit a slider to center field for a 2-run single. It was his 99th hit of the season and put the Orioles ahead, 4-0.

"I just kind of blacked out and executed my pitches," said Christie.
