Tigers shut out again as Dallas Keuchel leads Astros to series-opening win

HOUSTON (AP) -- Dallas Keuchel is beginning to look like his old self, and that's welcome news for a Houston Astros team eyeing another title.

Keuchel pitched six strong innings, three relievers completed the seven-hitter and Alex Bregman provided the offense by setting a career high with his 20th homer to give the Astros a 3-0 win over the Detroit Tigers on Friday night.

Keuchel (7-8) allowed six hits and struck out four to win his fourth straight decision after dropping the previous three. Tony Sipp and Brad Peacock pitched the seventh and eighth innings before Hector Rondon walked one in the ninth for his eighth save.
