The Houston Astros completed the three-game road series sweep of the Atlanta Braves on Sunday, thanks to their third straight comeback effort in a 5-2 decision.
After being held scoreless through seven innings, Houston broke through in the eighth when Yordan Alvarez continued his standout series with a two-run single that tied the game. Alvarez opened the series with a tiebreaking two-run homer in the ninth inning on Friday, and hit a two-run blast that put Houston ahead to stay in Saturday's win.
For Dubon, the eighth-inning at-bat extended his hitting streak to 17 games, the longest active run in the majors. Danny Young replaced Minter but after hitting Dubon with a pitch, he gave up a single to Alex Bregman that scored David Hensley and Julks, effectively blowing the game open.
