ARLINGTON, Texas -- Joc Pederson hit a three-run homer to cap an eight-run first inning in Texas' 10-7 win over the Astros on Tuesday night, a day after three Houston pitchers combined to throw a no-hitter against the Rangers. The first Texas hit was a single by No. 3 hitter Brandon Nimmo, while Jake Burger had a two-run single and Evan Carter drove in two more with a bouncing triple past first baseman Christian Walker into the right-field corner. Pederson, who struck out against Jason Alexander (1-1) to start the bottom of the first, drove a 1-2 fastball from the right-hander about a dozen rows into the seats in right field for his fourth homer.
