    On Thursday, the parents of Houston rookie starter Dallas Keuchel surprised him with the news that they had found last-minute bargain airline tickets from Tulsa to see his next start.

    On Saturday, he put on a show for them and the rest of the crowd by pitching a complete game to get his first win in his second major league start.

    J.D Martinez and Jordan Schafer hit consecutive homers in Houston's four-run fifth inning to back up Keuchel's performance and help the Astros to an 8-1 win over the Cleveland Indians.
