Astros End Streak with 5-1 Win | Houston Astros News

The Astros snapped their winless streak with a dominant 5-1 victory over the Yankees, reigniting their playoff hopes and returning to .500. Isaac Paredes sparked the offense with a key single, Jeremy Pena cashed it in with a run, and Christian Walker crushed his 24th homer to extend the lead. Houston’s pitching trio—Wesneski, Blubaugh, and Hader—shut down the Yankees’ late rally. Pena added a solo shot for good measure. This win proves Houston can win without Yordan Alvarez, thanks to breakout performances from Paredes and Walker. They’re headed to Queens next, with Brent Strom back in the dugout and Hunter Brown set to face the Mets’ Christian Scott Friday night.
