The Houston Astros downed the Washington Nationals 5-4 in a wild game at Minute Maid Park. Houston first baseman Jose Abreu scored on a walk-off throwing error by Washington catcher Keibert Ruiz in the bottom of the ninth to knock off the Nats for the second straight day. Abreu finished the game 3-for-4 with a home run, three RBI and a pair of runs scored. Astros reliever Ryan Pressly earned his first win of the year despite also being charged with his third blown save. Houston is second in the AL West at 39-and-29. The Astros will send right-hander Cristian Javier to the mound against the Nats tonight.
