The Houston Astros beat the Tampa Bay Rays by a score of 5-1. Houston catcher J.T. Realmuto deserved the lion's share of the credit. Realmuto went 4-4 with a home run, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 3 and driving in 2 for the Astros. Tampa Bay is still trying to get off the schneid, having lost 7 in a row.

The Astros ran into trouble in the top of the fourth. The score was 2-1, Houston, with two out. Tampa Bay, with runners on 1st and 3rd, had Taylor Walls at the plate. With a base hit, he could have changed the complexion of the game. Instead, he struck out and the Astros went on to win.
