While Claude Osteen pitched a shutout, Cesar Cedeno hit two homers and drove in five of the Astros' runs in a 7-0 victory over the Braves. Both of Cedeno's blasts came off Roric Harrison, one with Roger Metzger aboard in the fifth inning and the other with Metzger and Greg Gross on base in the seventh.
