John Mayberry singled in the 12th inning for his first hit since being recalled from Oklahoma City (American Association) and drove in the run that gave the Astros a 2-1 victory over the Giants. Cesar Cedeno, who looped a two-out double into right field, scored on Mayberry's single. [The Sporting News]
