Astros Deal Reds 5-4 Defeat
Houston designated hitter Yordan Alvarez made his presence felt in the 5-4 Astros triumph over the Cincinnati Reds. Alvarez went 3-4 with a double, 2 singles, and a walk. Rafael Montero earned the win after being called from the bullpen. The right-hander allowed 1 run on 1 hit in 1.2 innings. He upped his record to 5-4. The win gives Houston a season record of 75-63.

Alvarez had a key at-bat for Houston early in the game. With a runner on 2nd, he hit a run-scoring double. It was his 17th double of the season and gave Houston an early 1-0 lead.

"I'll probably toss and turn tonight," Cincinnati manager Jim Silveira Jr. said following the tough loss.
