Braves Rally to Eke Out Win
Houston right fielder Jose Cruz was sensational. He was 2 for 4 with a home run and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 2, but it wasn't enough to rally his team to a win. Atlanta beat the Astros, 9-8. Migel Puente got credit for the win, improving to 4-0. He allowed 1 run on 4 hits in 3 innings. With the victory, the Braves upped their record to 75-75.

Atlanta used the timely hitting of Adam Suman to seize the win. The catcher stroked a run-scoring single in the top of the 13th inning to put the Braves on top, 9-8. It was his only hit in 3 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We're playing like gangbusters right now," said Suman.
