Alvarez Ties Astros' Record for Career Slams in Win over Twins

Alvarez’s seventh career grand slam tied the Astros record and capped Houston’s six-run fourth inning in a 6-4 comeback over Minnesota.

  • On Tuesday, Yordan Alvarez hit his third grand slam of the season, tying the Houston Astros franchise record with his 26th home run of the year. The blast capped a six-run fourth inning in the Astros' 6-4 victory over the visiting Minnesota Twins.
  • The Twins pounced early on Houston starting pitcher Mike Burrows, taking a 3-0 lead in the first inning. Burrows required 30 pitches to escape the frame, struggling with command before settling down.
  • Houston's offense ignited in the fourth, scoring six runs to erase the deficit. Yainer Diaz delivered an RBI single, while Altuve drew a bases-loaded walk after a successful ABS review challenge.
  • Burrows earned his first win since May 27, overcoming the early trouble. Twins starter Joe Ryan allowed six runs over four innings, while Josh Hader secured his eighth save.
  • Wednesday's series finale features Houston right-hander Tatsuya Imai facing Minnesota right-hander Taj Bradley . The matchup concludes the current three-game set.
