Keuchel in command, runs streak to 11

HOUSTON -- Dallas Keuchel can't figure out what hinders the Astros on the road or, frankly, why he and his team are so good at home.

With Friday's 5-1 win over the Tigers, Keuchel won his 11th straight home start of the season and 12th in a row dating back to last season. It's the second-longest streak in franchise history, one behind Danny Darwin's 13-game streak from 1989-90. In his last 16 starts at Minute Maid Park, spanning 114 2/3 innings, Keuchel hasn't allowed a home run -- joining J.R. Richard and Joaquin Andujar as the only Astros pitchers to accomplish that feat.
