Losing Trend Continues for Texas
The Houston Astros just keep winning.

The Houston Astros got a good effort from starter Jacob deGrom in defeating the Texas Rangers at Globe Life Field. The final score was 4-2. The winner was deGrom. He threw 5.1 innings of shutout ball. The loser was Yoshinobu Yamamoto. Hunter Harvey closed the door for Houston, picking up his 5th save of the year.

The result might have been different, had it not been for slick-fielding second baseman Ha-seong Kim. Kim had a run-scoring single in the top of the seventh inning to put the Astros ahead, 3-1. For the game, Kim had 1 double and 1 single in 5 at-bats.

"I like our vibe," said deGrom. "It's a winning vibe."

The victory makes Houston 10-0.
