Astros Complete Sweep of Orioles with Dominant 8-1 Victory
Framber Valdez's strong pitching and early offensive outburst lead Houston to a decisive win over Baltimore.
- Framber Valdez pitched seven innings, allowing just one run and striking out seven batters.
- Jose Altuve hit a leadoff home run, contributing to a four-run first inning for the Astros.
- Jeremy Peña and Yainer Diaz each had three RBIs, extending Houston's winning streak to five games.
- Jordan Westburg's solo home run was the only run for the Orioles, who have now been swept twice this season.
- The Orioles' lineup shuffle, including Adley Rutschman leading off, failed to generate offensive momentum.
