HOUSTON (AP) — Luis Valbuena and Jason Castro homered as the Houston Astros chased Felix Hernandez in an eight-run first inning to snap a season-high, seven-game skid with a 10-0 win over the Seattle Mariners on Friday night.
Carlos Correa and Chris Carter also went deep for the Astros, but All-Star second baseman Jose Altuve exited early with discomfort in his right hamstring.
Hernandez (9-3), who had allowed just seven runs on the road all season, was tagged for five hits and eight runs with two walks.
