But at 11:55 p.m., when the Houston Astros lefty entered his dugout, a few fist bumps and high-fives from teammates were enough for a job well done. Seven innings from Valdez and two homers from third baseman Isaac Paredes led the Astros to a 8-2 victory against the Pittsburgh Pirates at PNC Park, earning a series victory.
