Astros Win 6-4 Walk-Off
There was no shortage of dramatics at Minute Maid Park.

Starlin Castro was a major factor in the 6-4 Houston win over Tampa Bay. The Astros second baseman was 3 for 5 with a home run and 2 singles, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. The Astros sport a record of 23-34.

The game was decided with one out in the bottom of the ninth. With Houston trailing 4-2, Castro jumped on a fastball from fireballing right-hander Joe Montgomery and hit a grand slam home run to left-center. With one swing, the Astros had a walk-off win.

"This place was rocking at the end," Castro said.
