Astros Roll Over Firestorm, 9-1
The Houston Astros and starting pitcher Chris Carpenter stifled the Arizona offense en route to a comfortable 9-1 win at Chase Field. Arizona is 3-3 after the loss.

Chris Iannetta had a big solo home run for the Astros in the top of the fourth inning. With Houston leading 1-0 and the bases empty, he sized up a forkball from 26-year old right-handed pitcher Oswaldo Sosa and punished it. The result was his 3rd home run of the season, which put the Astros on top, 2-0.

"We didn't help ourselves, it's as simple as that," said losing manager Edgar Martinez.
