Houston Downed, 8-4, by Angels
Los Angeles took on Houston in front of a lively crowd.

The Los Angeles Angels overcame a good performance by Houston center fielder Claude Spears to knock off Houston, 8-4, at Minute Maid Park. Spears was 4-5 with a home run and 3 singles. He scored 2 runs. The Astros, now 5-9, continue their poor start.

Augusto Ramírez came through with a big-time hit for Los Angeles. The right fielder smacked a grand slam home run in the top of the ninth inning to give his team the lead, 8-4. It was his only hit, but it was clutch.

"You need to show up when your number's called," said Ramírez.
