Astros Fall To Braves In Nail Biting 5 4 Loss
The Houston Astros lost to the Milwaukee Braves 5 to 4 in a tight finish. Key moments included a three-run Houston seventh inning highlighted by Denlis Menke’s homer in the sixth and solid relief by Turk Farrell and Dave Giusti. Joe Morgan contributed hits, while Jim Wynn grounded out to end the ninth as Milwaukee secured the win. The setback leaves Houston with an off day before a four-game series in Cincinnati and a busy schedule ahead.
