last night's win

Astros News

Yordan Alvarez continues to be a force for the Astros, smashing a two-run blast last night to lead Houston to a 5-3 victory over the Miami Marlins, improving their record to 49-54. With a solid run differential of +4 over the past week, the Astros are showing signs of life, even as they grapple with trade deadline decisions. General manager Dana Brown's recent comments hint at a clear vision for shoring up the roster, and the trade of Nate Pearson to the Royals suggests they are not afraid to make moves. Alvarez's consistent power has made him a unanimous No. 1 in Hitter Power Rankings, further solidifying his status as an MVP candidate. As they seek to reach that elusive 50th win, tonight’s matchup against the Marlins could set the tone for the rest of the season.
