The Houston Astros' Yordan Alvarez continues to impress, hitting his third home run in two games during a 10-2 victory over the Boston Red Sox, completing a series sweep and marking his fifth 25+ home run season with the franchise. The Astros' offense was bolstered by Alex Bregman's three-run homer and Jeremy Peña's two-run shot, among other contributions. Boston's pitching struggles were evident, with starter James Paxton exiting early due to injury and the bullpen failing to contain Houston's hitters. Red Sox manager Alex Cora compared Alvarez to Aaron Judge and David Ortiz, highlighting his exceptional performance at Fenway Park. Meanwhile, Juan Soto and Aaron Judge also made headlines by hitting back-to-back home runs in a separate game against the Rangers. This win streak puts Houston in a favorable position, while Boston faces a critical need to recover quickly to stay in playoff contention.
