Astros triumph over Mets in Valdez-Verlander showdown.

Framber Valdez outdueled former Astros ace Justin Verlander by holding the Mets to two runs and four hits while striking out nine batters in eight innings as the Astros finally reached 40 wins with a 4-2 victory over the Mets. Valdez improved to 4-1 with a 1.50 ERA and 0.83 WHIP in his past six starts, strengthening his case to make his second consecutive All-Star team. Alex Bregman slugged a two-run homer in the third inning that put the Astros ahead, 3-0, and Jose Altuve drove in a pair of runs with a sacrifice fly in the third and an RBI single in the seventh.
