Just like they did in the whole series, the Astros came once again from behind to escape with the W in Atlanta. On Sunday afternoon, they completed a three-game series sweep against the Braves with a 5-2 win to extend their winning streak to four contests.
Righty Cristian Javier and lefty Max Fried got into a beautiful pitching duel. The former went six innings of three hits and two runs (one earned), plus two walks and 10 strikeouts. The latter pitched 6 2/3 scoreless innings of three hits, three free passes, and five punchouts.
The scoreboard remained in zeroes until Kevin Pillar homered in the first.
