Fifteen weeks ago, Astros right-hander Justin Verlander carried a no-hitter into the eighth inning of a road start against the Minnesota Twins.

On Tuesday, after he didn’t allow a hit to the Twins through six innings, Verlander left his eighth consecutive victory with an eye on the big picture.

The Astros won the opener of their three-game series with the visiting Twins 4-2 behind another stellar performance from Verlander, who allowed just one baserunner while recording 10 strikeouts over six no-hit frames. It marked the third double-digit strikeout effort for Verlander this season, who threw 91 pitches, including 62 strikes, while handcuffing the scuffling Twins.
