Astros romp over ChiSox to reach 60 wins

Yuli Gurriel clubbed a three-run homer in the second inning and Alex Bregman hit a two-run shot in the sixth as the Astros joined the Red Sox as the only 60-game winners in the Majors with a 12-6 victory Saturday afternoon over the White Sox at Minute Maid Park. It was the Astros’ fifth consecutive win. The game marked the Major League debut for Astros outfielder Kyle Tucker, the No. 8 overall prospect, according to MLB Pipeline. Tucker struck out three times against White Sox starter James Shields before ripping a single to right in the seventh off Bruce Rondon for his first big league hit.
