Astros 9, Diamondbacks 2: Conger, Correa razing Arizona
Hank Conger and Carlos Correa get all the home runs. All of them.The Diamondbacks came into Saturday's game on a six-game winning streak. That streak was in jeopardy as Arizona had to face the Astros' ace, Dallas Keuchel. Following today, Keuchel had a 9-0 record in 11 starts at Minute Maid Park this season with a 1.13 ERA. It would be near impossible to save the streak after the Astros hit four home runs in the game -- Houston won 9-2.
It wouldn't be the easiest day for Keuchel but he found a way. Keuchel had 44 pitch inning in the second, walking three Diamondbacks in the inning. Arizona would take a 2-1 lead after Keuchel forced home a run on a walk.
