Greg Estrada helped his team muscle past the Kansas City Royals, 9-3. In the game, the Houston second baseman went 3-5 with a home run and a double, while adding 4 RBI and scoring once. With this game in the books, Houston is 47-54, Kansas City 44-57.

Houston used the bat of Jaylin Turks to get the win. The first baseman hammered a 2-run home run in the top of the fifth inning to put the Astros ahead, 4-2. It was his lone hit in 5 at-bats, but it did its damage.

"Chalk one up for the good guys," said Estrada. "I'm sure our fans enjoyed that win."
