National League East. Ronald Acuna Jr. tied a career-high with

break.

Trey Mancini belted a grand slam to highlight a two-homer
performance, fueling Houston's seventh straight victory in
Cleveland.
Houston's Jose Altuve had an RBI double in the fourth inning
among his three hits and the team's 14. The Astros have
outscored the opposition 21-4 during their three-game win
streak. Houston bench coach Joe Espada guided the club in place
of manager Dusty Baker, who tested positive for COVID-19.

Dylan Floro (0-1) about halfway up the left-center field
bleachers as the Cubs ended a five-game losing streak.
