Hunter Pence homered and drove in three runs to help the Houston Astros beat the Washington Nationals 6-4 on Saturday night. Lance Berkman added two RBIs and Carlos Lee had three hits for Houston, which has won just three of its last 11 games. Left-hander Wandy Rodriguez (4-3), who had only one victory in his previous six starts, allowed four runs and eight hits over 5 1-3 innings to earn the win.
