Brad Peacock allowed only one run on two hits Monday night, and Robinson Chirinos made two key plays against his old team as the Houston Astros beat the Texas Rangers 2-1.
George Springer started the game with a home run, and Chirinos collected the go-ahead RBI double in the sixth and also threw out Rougned Odor trying to steal second base after leadoff walk in the seventh.
The only Rangers run came on a solo homer by Ronald Guzman.
Drew Smyly made his first MLB start since 2016 and labored over three innings despite allowing only one run, the Springer homer.
