In a commanding performance, the Houston Astros defeated the Arizona Diamondbacks 8-0, with Yordan Alvarez hitting two three-run homers and driving in a season-high six RBIs. Alvarez's home runs, his seventh multi-homer game this season, helped solidify his standing in franchise history by tying Chris Carter's record for most in a season. Framber Valdez shone on the mound, pitching seven scoreless innings while only allowing two hits and striking out seven. The Astros' offense, including contributions from Mauricio Dubón and Jose Altuve, capitalized on opportunities, stringing together hits to build their lead. This victory marked a significant rebound for the Astros after a recent series defeat in Cincinnati. The return of Kyle Tucker, who contributed to the offensive effort after recovering from injury, added further depth to the lineup.
