Mets Win at Houston, 10-6
The New York Mets handed the Houston Astros a loss at Minute Maid Park. The final score was 10-6. Nelson Cruz was one of the major contributors for New York. In addition to his 2 singles and 1 home run, he scored 1 run and drove in 4. The Astros drop to 8-16 and continue their inconsistent start to the 2012 season.

New York used a clutch at-bat from Juan Uribe to capture the win. The second baseman hammered a 3-run home run in the top of the second inning to put the Mets ahead, 3-0. It was his lone hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a humdinger.

"I'm just out there trying to have as much fun as I can while I'm playing," Cruz told the New York Bulletin.
