Villar scored the winning run on Trevor Crowes single in the bottom of the ninth inning and the Houston Astros beat the Minnesota Twins 6-5 on Wednesday. Villar singled to start the ninth and advanced to second on a sacrifice bunt by Jose Altuve. Crowes line drive to left field off Brian Duensing (6-2) allowed the speedy Villar to score easily, giving Houston its first win in six tries against Minnesota. Manager Bo Porter took Villar out of Tuesday nights game after he was thrown out trying to stretch a leadoff single into a double in the third inning. Porter spoke to him afterward about the importance of being smart on the bases. They had a much more positive talk after Wednesdays game. "I went over and I gave him a hug and told him, Im very proud of you," Porter said. "Thats maturity ... a lot of guys would hang their head and say, Poor old me, I got taken out of the game. He didnt handle it that way at all." "I really felt like he was going to handle it the right way and he came out today and literally showed that he handled it the right way," Porter continued. Villar understood why he got in trouble, but doesnt plan on stifling his aggression on the bases. "I told him I was going to keep playing my game," said Villar, whose comments were translated by a reporter who spoke Spanish. "Despite what happened yesterday, he likes for me to play aggressively. He likes me to play aggressively, so thats how Ill play. Thats how Ill always play because thats my style of play." Duensing was unhappy that he wasnt able to hold off the Astros. "I just didnt execute right there at the end, and they did what they were supposed to," he said. Ryan Doumits leadoff home run in the ninth against Astros reliever Erik Bedard (4-10) tied it at 5. "We had chances, but there at the end, they just got it done," Minnesota manager Ron Gardenhire said. "They got the big hit, and (Duensing) just didnt make a good pitch there." Crowe, who also drove in a run in the fourth, has seven hits in four games since returning from Triple-A. "Its definitely a good start," he said. "I owe a lot oof credit to Bo, I was in a good rhythm and he put me right in the lineup and I feel like Im still in that rhythm.dddddddddddd" Minnesota was down 3-0 after a three-run first inning by the Astros before tying it on a three-run shot by Alex Presley in the third. It was Presleys first homer since being acquired from Pittsburgh in the trade for Justin Morneau. Pedro Florimon doubled to open the eighth and scored on a groundout by Darin Mastroianni as the Twins closed to 5-4. Before tying it, Minnesota squandered a chance in the seventh when Chris Herrmann grounded into an inning-ending double play with the bases loaded. Brandon Barnes had two RBIs and Chris Carter and Brett Wallace added two hits apiece for Houston. Minnesota starter Liam Hendriks yielded eight hits and five runs in 4 1-3 innings, leaving him with just one win in six starts this season. Houston starter Jordan Lyles allowed four hits and three runs in 6 1-3 innings. An RBI double by Wallace put Houston up 1-0 in the first inning. Carter walked before Wallace barely scored on a single by Marc Krauss and make it 2-0, and Barnes added a sacrifice fly. Presley came out on top of a 13-pitch at-bat in the third, coming back from an 0-2 count before hitting a tying home run to right field. Jose Altuve doubled with two outs in the fourth and scored on Crowes single for a 4-3 lead. Carter led off the fifth with a single, then the 6-foot-4, 245-pound slugger took second on his second steal this season. Barnes single off reliever Ryan Pressly pushed Houstons lead to 5-3.
