The Houston Astros put together a four-run eighth inning to rally past the Seattle Mariners Wednesday night, 7-5.

Still, skipper Dusty Baker’s squad was able to get it done.
They’ll look to cap off a sweep of the Mariners Thursday afternoon when they host Seattle again at 1:10 on Zone 1150 AM & 93.7 FM.
