Alvarez Swings Astros to 10-5 Win
Thanks in large part to first baseman Yordan Alvarez, the Houston Astros beat the Kansas City Royals, 10-5. Alvarez went 2 for 3 with a home run, a double, and 2 walks. He scored 2 runs and drove in 3. The win gives Houston a season record of 41-30.

With Houston trailing 2-1 in the top of the third, Alvarez hit a slider from Jaren Warwick for a 3-run home run. It was his 21st home run of the season and put the Astros ahead, 4-2.

"It's nice to step up when your team needs you," said Alvarez.
