Following a 10-game losing streak, the Cleveland Guardians won three straight games against one of MLB's best teams, the Houston Astros.
The Guardians claimed a surprising series win over Houston after entering the three-game set mired in a 10-game skid. The Astros dropped back-to-back home contests for the first time since suffering a three-game sweep to the San Francisco Giants in their first homestand of the year.
Houston finished 2-for-21 with runners in scoring position as the Astros lost a second consecutive game to Cleveland.
A direct result of the numerous injuries that have thinned Houston's roster this season has been the steady stream of minor leaguers making their big league debuts for the Astros.
