HOUSTON -- Alex Bregman continues to be in Home Run Derby form.
Bregman clubbed his career-high 20th homer of the season in the first inning of Friday's game against the Tigers, taking former Astros teammates Mike Fiers deep to left-center field to give the Astros a 2-0 lead. It's his 12th homer in his past 27 games.
The All-Star, who leads the Astros in homers and will participate in Monday's T-Mobile Home Run Derby, was hitting .316 with 14 homers and 38 RBIs in 37 games prior to Friday.
