The Astros bats came alive and pounded 11 hits against only 2 hits for the Marlins and gave them their 1st loss of the year, 6 - 3. The Astros had several runners out on the base paths or the score could have been higher. Excellent pitching by Karl Pringle - 4 innings, Mark Robichau - 2 innings and a 3 up 3 down last inning by Aaron Dushkin against the 2, 3, 4 batters in the Marlins lineup. Nnamdi Dikes hit another 2 run HR in the 4th inning to help pave the way. A good team effort aided by diving catches by Brooks Kelm and a double play started by pitch (Mark), to 2nd(Karl) to 1st(Aaron). This was the 1st 7 inning game played this fall.
Another tough outing scheduled for Friday vs the Dodgers as the Astros will be mostly using 13 yr old pitching.
