Astros 7, Rays 3
W: Cosart (6-5)
L: Archer (3-4)
Seven out of their last ten. 21-12 over the last month or so. Who are these guys?
Down 1-0 early on Evan Longoria’s RBI single in the first, the Good Guys came roaring back against a faltering Chris Archer in the third. They rang up five tallies, the big blow coming on Matt Dominguez’ three-run double.
Fowler drove in two with a double in the fourth and Longoria answered in the fifth with a two-run homer, but that was it the rest of the way. Cosart went seven and scattered nine hits, while Sipp, Fields and Zeid closed it out. Fields experienced forearm tightness during his appearance and went to the 15-day DL after the game.
