Jed Lowrie's grand slam. - Troy Taormina-USA TODAY SportsJed Lowrie's grand slam pushes Astros past Twins.
Fittingly, the Astros won on Star Wars Day with a grand slam by a Jed-I Knight. Jed Lowrie's seventh inning grand slam led the Astros past the Twins 8-5.
Lowrie's huge grand slam made a winner out of Dallas Keuchel, who turned in another strong outing at Minute Maid Park. He struck out 12 Twins, the fourth time this season he's had over 10 strikeouts. He had problems with home runs on the afternoon, allowing three to the Twins, but they were all solo shots.
