Guardians End 10-Game Losing Streak With 7-5 Win Over Astros

The Cleveland Guardians snapped a 10-game losing streak with a 7-5 win over the Houston Astros, thanks to key contributions from Brayan Rocchio, who delivered a go-ahead two-run double and executed two sacrifice bunts, and David Fry, whose late solo home run provided crucial insurance. Jose Ramirez also played a significant role, hitting a three-run homer as the Guardians' offense finally delivered in clutch moments after a stretch of missed opportunities. Cleveland's bullpen, led by Matt Festa, Paul Sewald, Hunter Gaddis, and Emmanuel Clase, successfully protected the lead against a surging Astros team that had recently dominated at home. The win ended the Guardians' longest skid in 13 years and followed a demoralizing extra-innings loss to the Detroit Tigers, which had extended their losing streak to double digits. Despite the victory, manager Stephen Vogt emphasized that the team still has work to do to regain consistency and remain competitive. The Guardians will look to build on this momentum as they continue their road trip.
