En route to their 35th win, the Astros had Cristian Javier and Alex Bregman’s support to beat the Angels for the third straight time, this afternoon 9-6. Javier was outstanding for one more start and took his fifth consecutive win on the mound while Bregman extended his 10-game hitting streak with a huge grand slam.
Even though the score might not tell you that, Javier was stellar once again. He worked six innings of six-hit, one-run ball with no walks and five strikeouts. That was enough to get his seventh win overall and leave his record at 7-1 with a 2.
