HOUSTON (AP) — Jake Meyers hit a two-run homer and Jeremy Peña’s three-run shot in the fifth inning gave the Houston Astros a 5-4 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers on Friday night to extend their season-long winning streak to six games.
Houston trailed by 2 when Victor Caratini singled to start the fifth, Jose Altuve singled on an infield grounder and Peña sent a slider from Freddy Peralta into the left-field seats for a 5-4 lead.
The Astros have won eight of their last nine games to start to recover from a horrible start to the season and move into third place in the AL West.
“We’re feeling good,” Peña said. “We’ve always believed in ourselves since the beginning. We have a great team. We’ve got the necessary pieces and we’re slowly putting it back together.”
Hunter Brown (1-4) yielded four runs and four hits while walking three in five innings for his first win since Sept. 13. He had been 0-6 in his last nine starts.
