In a dominant performance, the Houston Astros secured a commanding 15-1 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Tuesday evening. Rookie sensation Yordan Alvarez contributed significantly with two home runs as Houston built a large early advantage, notably getting to their former teammate Charlie Morton on the mound for Tampa Bay. Astros starter Justin Verlander delivered a scoreless outing through five innings before being ejected in the sixth, but the substantial lead ensured Houston cruised comfortably to the win.
