HOUSTON (AP) — Kyle Tucker hit a three-run homer in Houston’s big third inning to help the Astros hand the Texas Rangers their 10th straight loss with a 7-3 victory. Tucker fought through a nine-pitch at-bat, fouling off six pitches in a row, before smacking a fastball from Kolby Allard into the bullpen in right center field to make it 5-0. Jake Odorizzi allowed four hits and three runs with six strikeouts and two walks in 4 2/3 innings. Brandon Bielak (3-3) gave up just one hit in 2 1/3 scoreless innings for the win.
