The Houston Astros force a game six with a 9-5 win over the Braves. Atlanta jumped out to a 4-0 lead in the first inning, but Houston kept chipping away to eventually take a 7-5 lead, and added runs late to cement the win. The Astros pen pitched well, allowing just four hits and no walks in 6 1/3 innings, striking out six.

Game six takes place in Houston Tuesday as the teams travel Monday.
