NEW YORK — The Houston Astros moved over .500 for the first time this season, beating the New York Mets 10-5 for their ninth win in 10 games as Jake Meyers hit a tiebreaking single in a five-run 11th inning. Houston star Jose Altuve was ejected in the seventh after he threw his bat and helmet when umpires called him out on what appeared to be a foul ball. Brandon Nimmo hit his 100th career homer for the Mets, a tying two-run drive in the seventh off Bryan Abreu.
