Bobby Jones held Houston to three hits over seven innings for his third straight victory. The Astros have lost four straight.
Jones (3-1) didn’t allow a hit after the third inning and has allowed two earned runs in his last 30 innings. He finished with five strikeouts and five walks.
Jones’ performance overshadowed the effort by Houston starter Shane Reynolds (1-2), who struck out five over seven innings and kept alive his string of not walking a batter this season in 20 2-3 innings.
