HOUSTON — Alex Bregman homered twice and had a season-high four RBIs to lead the Houston Astros to a 9-2 win over the Oakland Athletics on Monday night. Bregman homered off Oakland starter Ross Stripling in the fourth inning, reminiscent of the homer he hit off Stripling in the 2018 All-Star Game. Bregman homered again in the seventh off Mitch Spence. Bregman later added a double in the eighth that scored Trey Cabbage and Jeremy Peña to put Houston up 7-2. The Astros have now won four of their last five, including a series win in Detroit. Oakland has lost four of five.
