Astros Stay Hot, Beat White Sox, 5-3
Houston first baseman Chris Dillon was a significant contributor in his team's 5-3 triumph over the Chicago White Sox. He went 3 for 4 with a home run and a triple, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once for Houston. The winning pitcher was Jamie Zepeda. He tossed 73 pitches over 5 innings, allowing 3 runs on 8 hits. Robby Drexler earned the save, his 27th, for the Astros.

Houston used the timely hitting of Dusty Rayner to capture the win. The designated hitter socked a 2-run home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Astros ahead, 4-3. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a big one.

Dillon said he was "thrilled" the fans had something to get excited about.

With the win, Houston goes to 82-53, while the White Sox fall to 69-65.
