The Astros erased a five-run deficit in the final two innings of their 7-6 win over the Chicago Cubs at Minute Maid Park. Seiya Suzuki hit two home runs and Christopher Morel added another to give the Cubs a 6-1 lead in the fourth. However, the Astros scored twice in the eighth, and Jake Meyers slammed a two-run home run in the ninth to bring Houston within one. Later in the ninth, Kyle Tucker brought in the game-tying and game-winning runs on a two-RBI single. Bryan Abreu earned his second win in relief. The Astros have won four straight to improve to 24-and-19. They will remain home to host the Oakland Athletics tomorrow night.
