The Houston Astros handed the Arizona Diamondbacks a sound defeat, 12-0, at Minute Maid Park. Dave Armendariz was a main contributor to the win. He went 2-3 with a home run and a walk. He drove in 5 runs and scored once for Houston. Luis Rodas, the winner, improved to 8-3. He held Arizona to no runs on 3 hits over 5.2 innings, while racking up 9 strikeouts. Houston now sports a record of 80-65.

Julian Rodriquez went 1-3 with a walk. He drove in 2 runs and scored once for Houston. The 23-year old third baseman had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With one out and the bases loaded, he broke a 0-0 tie with a run-scoring sacrifice fly off Josh Vaughn. It was his 88th RBI of the season.

Said Arizona manager Terrell Bailey after the blowout loss: "Son of a gun."
