Houston manager Cecil Cooper presents an incorrect lineup card to umpire Eric Cooper. When leadoff hitter Michael Bourn singles off Yovani Gallardo, Brewers manager Ken Macha objects and the umps call out Kazuo Matsui, who is standing in the on-deck circle, as Bourn batted out of turn. Bourn then returns to the plate, draws a walk and scores on Lance Berkman’s double. Houston wins, 6 – 4, behind the pitching of Wandy Rodriguez.
