Wandy Rodriguez whiffed 11 batters at Minute Maid Field as the Houston Astros
beat the Washington Nationals 11 to 4.
 
Rodriguez(8-8) pitched well enough to earn the win.  He was reached for 9 hits
and 4 walks in 7 innings and was touched for 2 homeruns.  Both teams totaled
10 hits on the night.  
 
Joel Hanrahan(2-1) was hit with the loss.  Houston scored big getting 6 runs
off him in 5 innings.  Cecil Cooper was asked about the performance of
Rodriguez, 'He had his good stuff out there tonight.  The fans really get
into it when the strikeouts start mounting up - and that seems to give him
even more adrenalin.'
