The Houston Astros put on a hitting clinic Friday night, hammering the Cincinnati Reds 10-0 and pushing the Reds' losing streak to a staggering eight games. It was a night to forget for Cincinnati, but a showcase of power for Houston.

Zach Dezenzo and Yordan Alvarez each crushed two-run homers, setting the tone early for the Astros. But the fireworks didn't stop there. Zach Cole and Christian Vázquez also went deep, turning the game into a long-ball parade at the ballpark. The Astros have now won four of their last six, finding their stride at just the right time.

On the mound, Mike Burrows was in complete control, allowing just three hits over seven dominant innings. It was the kind of performance that makes a team dangerous—when the pitching matches the power. For the Reds, the slide continues, and they'll need to find answers fast before this skid gets any deeper.
