 MIAMI (AP) - Roger Clemens pitched seven shutout innings to win for the first time since April 8, and the Houston Astros broke an 11-game road losing streak Monday by beating the Florida Marlins 2-1.
Orlando Palmeiro, who came into the game with one RBI, drove in both runs with a scratch single and sacrifice fly. Houston has scored 11 runs in seven starts by Clemens (2-1).
The Astros improved to 2-14 on the road, winning away from Houston for the first time since April 15. They bounced back from a 16-0 loss Sunday at Atlanta, their sixth consecutive defeat.
