HOUSTON — Jake Meyers hit a two-run homer and Jeremy Peña's three-run shot in the fifth inning gave the Houston Astros a 5-4 victory over the Milwaukee Brewers Friday night to extend their season-long winning streak to six games. The Astros trailed by 2 when Victor Caratini singled to start Houston's fifth before Jose Altuve singled in an infield grounder. Peña then sent a slider from Freddy Peralta into the seats in left field to give the Astros a 5-4 lead. Hunter Brown (1-4) yielded four hits and four runs while walking three in five innings for his first win of the season.
