Houston Astros beat Detroit Tigers to extend winning streak

The Houston Astros defeated the Detroit Tigers in two games of their four‑game series. In the first matchup, Isaac Paredes hit a two‑run double in the eighth inning as the Astros rallied from a 6‑5 deficit to an 8‑6 victory, preventing Tigers manager A.J. Hinch from reaching his 1,000th career win. Jeremy Peña’s RBI single and a key error by James Outman set up the comeback.

Three days later, rookie pitcher Tatsuya Imai struck out 10 over six scoreless innings, and Taylor Trammell homered as Houston won 2‑1. The win gave the Astros a three‑game streak and moved them within two games of the AL West‑leading Seattle Mariners.
