Firestorm Winners, 10-5, at Minute Maid Park
Houston left fielder Michael Brantley had a good game in a losing cause. His team fell, 10-5, to Arizona at Minute Maid Park. Brantley was 2-5 with a home run and a double, while scoring 2 times and driving in 3. For Houston, now 21-5, wins have been plentiful, losses few.

Arizona used a well-timed hit by Julio Falcon to capture the win. The first baseman socked a 2-run double in the top of the first inning to put the Firestorm ahead, 2-0. Though it was his only hit in 5 at-bats, it was important.

"We hit the ball on the barrel," said Arizona manager Edgar Martinez.
