Gerrit Cole allowed one hit in seven innings, and the Houston Astros backed him with three homers in an 11-0 victory over the Minnesota Twins.

Cole gave up his only hit in the sixth inning while the Astros broke out offensively to win a meeting of division leaders and snap the Twins’ four-game winning streak.

George Springer, Jake Marisnick and Alex Bregman homered, giving Houston a franchise-record 43 home runs in April.

Max Kepler had the only hit off Cole, a double off the right-field wall with one out in the sixth. Relievers Josh James and Chris Devenski completed the three-hitter.

Kepler had two hits for the Twins, who have hit 50 home runs in their first 27 games.
