Houston 13-3 After 4-2 Win Over Washington
The Houston Astros got a strong performance from pitcher Chris Carpenter, who stymied the Washington offense en route to a win, 4-2, at Wizards Park. Houston, at 13-3, is off to a blistering start.

Houston used a clutch at-bat from Kelly Johnson to capture the win. The second baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the first inning to put the Astros ahead, 2-0. It was his lone hit in 4 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"Like I've always said, I'm the straw that stirs the drink," Johnson said (again).
