Ryan O'Hearn and Whit Merrifield each hit a grand slam as the Royals routed the Astros 12-2 in Houston. Merrifield finished 4-for-5 with five RBI as Kansas City picked up just its fifth road win in 18 tries this season. Danny Duffy hurled six-and-two-thirds innings of two-run ball for his first win of the season. Collin McHugh was rocked for eight runs in three innings to take the loss for Houston. Alex Bregman homered and George Springer singled in a run for the Astros, who had their three-game winning streak snapped.
