Baltimore Roughed Up By Astros
|
Riding the 3-hit performance of the two-time All-Star Yordan Alvarez, the Houston Astros stopped the Baltimore Orioles, 8-1. Picking up the win was Jaime Melendez. He went 6 innings, allowing no runs on 3 hits. The right--hander struck out 7 and walked 0. The win puts the Astros at 69-59, while the Orioles drop to 78-52.
With Houston leading 4-0 in the top of the seventh, Alvarez came up to bat against Baltimore pitcher Keegan Akin. Alvarez hit a fastball to right-center for a grand slam home run. His 41st home run of the season put the Astros on top, 8-0.
"Winning is not something we take for granted," Alvarez said.
