HOUSTON -- With the top of Houstons batting order
struggling Friday night, the players at the bottom came
through to help the Astros keep their winning streak
intact. gallinari-clippers-jersey/">Danilo Gallinari Jersey
. Jonathan Villar broke an 0-for-26 slump with a go-ahead
RBI double in the seventh inning and the Astros won their
seventh straight game with a 2-1 victory over the
Baltimore Orioles in the annual Major League Baseball
Civil Rights game. It is the first time Houston, losers
of 100-plus games the last three seasons, has won seven
straight since 2010. Brett Oberholtzer (2-6) allowed four
hits and a run in seven innings for the win and Chad
Qualls got the last four outs for his fifth save.
"Everybody did their part tonight," Houston manager Bo
Porter said. "Oberholtzer was outstanding. The bullpen
came in and was able to close it out and hold the game
right there. Overall, just a great team win." The Astros
had one hit before Matt Dominguez doubled to start the
seventh. Alex Presley singled with one out but was thrown
out trying to stretch it into a double. Robbie Grossman
followed with a double, which sailed just out of the
reach of a leaping Steve Pearce in left field, to tie it
1-all. Villars ground-rule double bounced into the
bullpen in right-centre field to put Houston on top and
chase Miguel Gonzalez (3-4). "Extremely happy for
(Villar) and Grossman," Porter said. "Both of them have
been kind of scuffling and for them to be the two
offensive heroes tonight, it definitely feels good."
Houstons Nos. 7, 8 and 9 hitters combined for three hits
Friday night while the top three had just one. "I feel
like were never out of a game," said Grossman, who was
recalled from Triple-A Oklahoma City on Monday. "Were
just out there having fun." Adam Jones doubled to start
the second inning and scored on a one-out single by J.J.
Hardy to put Baltimore up 1-0. But the Orioles couldnt do
much else against Oberholtzer as they tied a season high
with their fourth straight loss. "Weve scored five runs
in the last three games," manager Buck Showalter said.
"You tip your cap to the other pitcher, but were capable
of better." Gonzalez kept Houston off-balance early and
didnt allow a hit until Jose Altuve legged out an infield
single on a grounder to shortstop with one out in the
sixth. Gonzalez yielded five hits and two runs in 6 2-3
innings. The Astros wore the uniforms of the Houston
Eagles and the Orioles donned the uniforms of the
Baltimore Elite Giants of the Negro Leagues for the game.
Houston rookie George Springer, who had hit seven homers
in his previous seven games, went 0 for 4 with two
strikeouts to snap an 11-game hitting streak. Oberholtzer
had retired five straight before Nelson Cruz extended his
hitting streak to 11 games with a single to start the
fourth inning. But he still faced the minimum in the
inning thanks to a double play. He threw perfect frames
in both the fifth and sixth and sat down the first two
batters in the seventh before a single by Chris Davis.
Hardys fly out ended the inning and Oberholtzers night.
Gonzalez retired the first eight batters before walking
Villar with two outs in the third. But Altuve grounded
out to end that inning. He plunked Jason Castro with two
outs in the fourth before Pearce robbed Dominguez of a
hit with a diving catch to end the inning. NOTES: Rock
and Roll Hall of Famer Berry Gordy and Pro Football Hall
of Famer Jim Brown were honoured at a luncheon on Friday
in conjunction with the game for their contributions to

by 3 1/2RECORD VS. TORONTO -- The Toronto Blue Jays had
been looking for a right-handed bat to even out a
predominantly left-handed lineup. They may have found a
suitable option in infielder Danny Valencia. Toronto
acquired Valencia -- whos hitting .333 against left-
handed pitchers in his career -- from the Kansas City
Royals on Monday in exchange for right-handed pitcher
Liam Hendriks and catcher Erik Kratz. "We have a lot of
left-handed bats on the roster right now and we certainly
could use some help from the right side" Blue Jays
manager Alex Anthopoulos said on a conference call.
"Dannys had a lot of success. Weve actually inquired
about him in the past but havent been able to get
anything done. "Weve been really trying to find all year
... that right-handed bat. Hes had success at the big
league level doing that and doing it well. Its a good fit
for us." Through 36 games with the Royals this season,
Valencia has a .282 batting average -- including a
.354/.386/.492 slashline against lefties -- with five
doubles, two home runs and 11 RBIs. Hes expected to
report Tuesday to Fenway Park in Boston, where the Jays
are currently playing a three-game set. Aside from a
valuable bat, the 29-year-old Valencia is also versatile
in the field, playing most of his career big league games
at third base but also filling in at second and first, as
well as the DH spot. Anthopoulos said that flexibility
was a big draw for the Blue Jays, who are still missing
starting first baseman/designated hitters Edwin
Encarnacion (strained quadriceps) and Adam Lind (foot).
"I think the No. 1 factor that we got with Danny is his
success versus left-handers and what he can do in the
box," the GM said. "Whether (Blue Jays manager John
Gibbons) decides to put him at third, DH, first, hell
ultimately make that decision. Im not concerned where
hell find spots for him. I think iit will work out fine.
clippers-jersey/">Sam Dekker Jersey. " Also missing
from the Blue Jays lineup is starting third baseman Brett
Lawrie, who broke his right index finger after taking a
pitch on the hand in Cincinnati five weeks ago.
Anthopoulos wouldnt say that having Valencia on the team
would mean Lawrie could be permanently shifted to second
base, a position hes played 32 games this season. "I
wouldnt read anything into it," Anthopoulous said.
"Things change so fast. "With respect to Brett, ideally
youd like to have any player be at one position the
entire time but ... the great thing we see is that our
players want to win and theyre willing to play anywhere
on the diamond," he added. "Weve even had Encarnacion
play left field. "So its been a really selfless attitude
across the board. When Brett comes back well see what the
health of the team is, well see whos playing well, and
well come up with a game plan at that time." Kratz, 34,
is expected to report to Kansas City on Tuesday. He hit
.198 with three homers and 10 RBIs in 34 games for
Toronto, and .299 with a .354 on-base percentage through
27 games at triple-A Buffalo. Hendriks, meanwhile, was 1-
0 with a 6.08 ERA in three starts for Toronto. He was a
triple-A All-Star this year at Buffalo, going 8-1 in 18
games (16 starts) with a 2.33 ERA. While Anthopoulous
said no other moves are in the mix as of now, he didnt
rule out the possibility that more trades would be made
ahead of the July 31 deadline. "I think theres always a
chance but I think all 29 other GMs would say the same
thing," he said. "I think its been very active in terms
of phone calls, emails, texts, everyone seems to be
exchanging ideas but thats expected. ... Trades are hard
to make. "I wouldnt say were close to anything, but this
deal came together fast so ... were going to continue to
talk to clubs."
