Angel Colon came out of the bullpen to earn the win. The right-hander allowed no runs on no hits in 1.1 innings. His record now stands at 1-0. The loss drops San Francisco to 12-7.

Mike Lockhart hit a run-scoring triple off Arturo Lopez in the top of the eighth, which put the Drillers in front, 4-3. Lockhart had 1 single, in addition to the triple. For the game, he went 2 for 4.

Houston manager Tom Harrington commended his team for "doing what it takes to win."
