Astros Dealt 6-2 Loss by Tampa Bay
The home crowd had a good time watching the Houston Astros and Tampa Bay Rays get after it.

Tampa Bay beat Houston on the strength of starter Drew Rasmussen's fine effort. The right-hander led his team to a win, 6-2. The win puts Tampa Bay at 75-67 this season.

The Rays got an important contribution from right fielder Ben Gamel, who in the bottom of the second punched a 0-1 fastball into left for a run-scoring double. It was his 2nd double of the season and put the Rays ahead, 2-0.

"Enjoyed this one," Gamel told the Tampa Bay Daily. "But it's back to work tomorrow."
