Gonzales Now 4-2 After Subduing Astros
Boston used a superb performance from starting pitcher Marco Gonzales to down the Houston Astros, 2-0. Connor Sadzeck converted his 1st save in 2 tries. The 4th-place Astros have dropped 4 straight games.

Gonzales dominated for Boston, raising his record to 4-2. Houston hitters had few good at-bats against the left-hander, who scattered 2 hits over 8 innings while striking out 4.

"We put a lot of pressure on ourselves," Gonzales told a Boston Times reporter. "Sometimes we just need to relax."
