Astros starter Dallas Keuchel turned in a solid outing but did not factor in the decision Saturday night against the Rangers. The left-hander permitted two runs on six hits and one walk while striking out four over five innings in a 9-5 victory.

Keuchel has allowed two runs or fewer in five of his last seven starts. He is scheduled to make his next start Saturday at Tampa Bay. He is 1-2 with a 3.03 ERA in six appearances (four starts) away from home.
