Rangers 6, Astros 2
- Hey, that was fun!
- An acceptable outing from Dane Dunning, who came one out away from registering a Quality Start. 5.2 IP, 5 hits, 1 walk, 5 Ks, 2 runs allowed, one on a Yordan Alvarez solo home run.
- The Alvarez home run started the second inning, and was followed by a Yuli Gurriel double and a Kyle Tucker single, with Tucker then stealing second to put runners on second and third with no one out. It seemed like a bad inning was in the offing. Dunning escaped, though, getting Aledmys Diaz to line out, then fanning Jason Castro and Jeremy Pena to end the inning.
