The Cleveland Indians took on the Houston Astros at Minute Maid Park.

The Cleveland Indians picked up a win at Minute Maid Park, defeating the Houston Astros, 3-1. Starting pitcher Corey Kluber was an essential part of his team's success. The first-place Indians improved to 79-72.

Early in the game, third baseman Ken Keltner had a 2-run home run for Cleveland. It was his 15th home run of the season and put the Indians on top, 2-0.

Keltner said his wife shared good advice with him before the game. "She said, 'Don't allow this game to make you mad.' When I thought about it, I realized this is just a game. I was able to relax at the plate."
