Carlos Lee drove in three runs, including a two-run homer, and Brett Myers threw seven scoreless innings to lead the Houston Astros to a 4-1 victory over the New York Mets on Saturday.
Myers (10-7) broke Larry Dierker's franchise record by lasting at least six innings for his 27th consecutive start. The 30-year-old right-hander held the Mets to six hits and a walk while striking out six, posting his 10th quality start in his last 11 outings.
Lee started the scoring with an RBI single in a two-run first and added his 19th homer of the season in the fifth off Mets starter Johan Santana.
Santana (10-9) allowed four runs on eight hits over seven innings to lose his third consecutive start.
Tommy Manzella went 3-for-4 with an RBI for Houston, which has won six of seven.
David Wright drove in New York's run with an RBI single off reliever Wilton Lopez in the eighth.
Houston's Brandon Lyon worked a perfect ninth for his ninth save in 10 opportunities.
