Adrian Beltre followed with a grounder to shortstop Carlos Correa, who juggled the ball just slightly and only got the force at second and not the inning-ending double play.

Odor followed with a high fly to deep left and the ball hit off the wall just beyond left fielder Colby Rasmus. Beltre scored easily as the ball bounded away from Rasmus.
Rangers starter Colby Lewis, who hasn't lost to the Astros since June 25, 2010, was not involved in the decision as he allowed four runs in six innings. The big blow was a three-run home run by Jose Altuve in the third, his 10th homer of 2016.
