It was a performance that recalled the consistency that characterized him during his dominant streak between May and July, when he accumulated a 10-0 record and a 1.86 ERA in 13 consecutive starts.\n\n“We needed this outing from Framber. He showed aggression and went back to being that starter who controls the game from the beginning,” noted bench coach Omar L\u00f3pez<\/strong>, who managed the team in place of Puerto Rican manager Joe Espada<\/strong>, absent due to health issues.\n\nThe bullpen completed the shutout with impeccable work from Bryan King<\/strong> and also Dominican Bryan Abreu<\/strong>, signing Houston’s tenth scoreless game<\/strong> of the season.\n\n\n

Yordan returns with a monumental home run<\/h3>\n\n\nIn the offensive, the Cuban Yordan \u00c1lvarez<\/strong>, who reappeared this week after more than three months on the injured list, hit a home run of 421 feet<\/strong> to center field in the eighth inning, his first home run since his return.\n\nRookie Cam Smith<\/strong> also provided power with a home run in the seventh inning, while the Dominican Jes\u00fas S\u00e1nchez<\/strong> opened the scoring early with a run-scoring single in the first inning.\n\nFor Colorado, starter Chase Dollander<\/strong> turned in a solid performance with six innings of one run, but was punished by his team’s lack of offensive support.\n\n\n

Astros maintain lead in the West<\/h3>\n\n\nWith this triumph, the Astros consolidate their lead in the American League West Division<\/strong>, where they maintain a 1.5-game lead over the Seattle Mariners<\/strong>.\n\n\n
