Astros Turn Back Detroit, 4-2
The Houston Astros topped the Detroit Tigers, 4-2, in American League action at Comerica Park. The standout performance belonged to Houston pitcher and Azua, Dominican Republic, native Sandy Alcantara. The winning pitcher was Alcantara, now 6-2. He tossed 8 innings of 5-hit ball, while walking 0 and fanning 6. The third-place Astros now have a record of 21-17.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Richie Palacios? The Houston second baseman had a run-scoring walk in the top of the third inning to put the Astros on top, 2-0. For the game, Palacios had 1 double and 1 single in 4 at-bats.

"Sandy was throwing free and easy," said Houston manager Mark Nestor.
