Astros Destroy Orioles 23-2 Behind 25 Hits, Yordan Alvarez's Grand Slam, 7 RBI

The Houston Astros disrespected the Baltimore Orioles in their own house Saturday night by routing them 23-2 at Camden Yards, the most runs an Astros team has ever scored in a game.

Four Astros went yard, headlined by rookie Yordan Alvarez's three home runs. The 22-year-old began by following Alex Bregman's two-run homer with his own 442-foot dinger in the top of the first inning. His second homer was a grand slam in the top of the seventh, and he added one more for good measure in the top of the ninth.
