Joey Loperfido, playing for the Astros, achieved his first major league hit with a go-ahead, bases-loaded single off Carlos Carrasco. This hit also marked his first RBI, driving in 2 runs to give the Astros the lead. Loperfido showcased his defensive skills by making a barehanded play off the wall and throwing out a runner at second base. Jeremy Peña, a teammate, impressed with a Jeter-like dive into the stands during a game.
