Alvarez Leads Astros to Win
Houston and Seattle put this game in the books despite some rain.

Yordan Alvarez made an impact in the 11-7 Houston win over Seattle. Alvarez, who finished 4th in the AL in slugging percentage with .563 in 2023, was 3-3 with a home run, 2 singles, and 2 walks, while scoring 3 times and driving in 2. Framber Valdez, who went 5 innings, was the winning pitcher. He was charged with 3 runs on 4 hits, while walking 4 and striking out 5. His record now stands at 7-8. Jhoan Duran got the save, his 5th in 5 chances.

Houston used the hitting of Christian Walker to pick up the win. The third baseman clubbed a grand slam home run in the top of the sixth inning to put the Astros on top, 10-3. For the game, Walker had 1 home run and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"It feels good to get this one," Walker told the Houston News.

After today's action, Houston sits at 69-63, while Seattle falls to 53-78.
