Houston Texans (18-6) 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 9 0
Tennessee Titans (13-11) 0 0 0 0 1 0 2 0 X 3 8 0
Titans Shut Out Texans, 3-0
Tennessee starter Jon Gish put a stranglehold on the Houston offense. The right-hander had complete command of his sinker in leading the Titans to a 3-0 win. The winner was Gish. He threw 8.0 innings of shutout ball. The loser was Jake Van Dellen. Despite the defeat, Houston still has a fine 18-6 record.

Tennessee went in front, 3-0, on Nick Horn's 2nd home run of the season. The 2-run home run, which Horn hit in the bottom of the seventh, left Houston pitcher Dennis Harris visibly perturbed.

"We're stringing together some nice wins," said Tennessee manager Jeff Hall.
