Alvarez Hits 2 home runs in Astros Win
The Houston Astros cut down the Tampa Bay Rays by the score of 9-8, with the largest share of the credit going to catcher Francisco Alvarez. Alvarez went 2 for 4 with 2 home runs. He drove in 5 runs and scored twice for the Astros. Houston reliever Hoby Milner snagged the win, upping his record to 4-0. Manuel Rodriguez shouldered the loss. Josh Hader earned his 17th save in 19 chances.

Had Rhylan Thomas not delivered a key base hit in the bottom of the seventh, the outcome might have been different. Instead, with two down and a runner on 2nd, Thomas hit a run-scoring single. That made the score 9-8, in favor of the Astros.

"The boys were really swinging the bats today," winning manager Brian Butterfield said.

Houston has now won 3 in a row.
