Cubs Absorb 4-2 Home Loss
Houston turned a good effort from starter Fernando Rijo into a win over the Chicago Cubs at Wrigley Field. The final score was 4-2. Rijo, now 6-4, was the winner. In 7 innings, he gave up 5 hits, while striking out 5, walking 0, and allowing 2 runs. Hal Garrett earned the save, his 1st, for the Astros.

Carl Crawford, who finished 3rd in the NL in stolen bases with 28 in 2004, had a direct impact on the outcome. Crawford contributed a run-scoring single in the top of the sixth inning to put Houston up, 4-2.

"Fernando is a gamer," said Houston manager Craig Biggio.

The win hiked the Houston record to 39-23.
