Late Rally Gets Astros 5-3 Win
The Houston Astros picked up a win at Minute Maid Park, knocking off the Baltimore Orioles, 5-3. Starting pitcher Joe Niekro was a big reason why. The win went to Billy Wagner in relief. His record improves to 3-1. Tim Stoddard took the loss. Larry Andersen notched his 15th save of the season.

A defensive lapse proved costly in the contest. In the bottom of the eighth, with the game tied, Lance Berkman was at the plate when Houston scored 1 on an error. The miscue enabled the Astros to go in front, 4-3.

"This is a very good team," said Berkman. "We have the chance to do something special."

The Astros sport a record of 35-17.
