Art Morrison had a good game, but he could not keep the Houston Astros from falling, 5-3, to the Boston Red Sox at Fenway Park. The Houston catcher was 3 for 4 with a home run and 2 singles in the loss. Terence McCray earned save number 16 this season. The Red Sox lead the American League East Division by 5½ games.

The Red Sox got a big at-bat from third baseman Rafael Devers. For the game, Devers was 1-4 with a home run, while adding 2 RBI and scoring once. In the bottom of the first, with a runner on 1st, he stroked a 2-run home run. His 14th home run of the season gave Boston a 2-1 lead.

"We ground out the win," said Devers. "That's all that matters."
