HOUSTON -- With an ice bag strapped to his shoulder and enough Ace bandage to made his torso look like that of a mummy, Colby Lewis celebrated a successful sweep with a smile.

The Texas Rangers right-hander said he felt comfortable and healthy, and most of all, he was having fun. He used the Houston Astros' aggressiveness against them to help the Rangers to their first three-game win streak of the season, capped by an 11-3 victory Wednesday night at Minute Maid Park.

In eight innings, Lewis (2-2) gave up one run on six hits with one walk and six strikeouts.

"It's fun to go out there and get that amount of runs scored and fill up the strike zone and use their aggressiveness to get quick outs," he said.

The Rangers (11-16) swept a series for the first time since last September, when their last sweep came against, coincidentally, the Astros. Houston (18-10) lost a season-high third consecutive game.

Left fielder Carlos Peguero powered Texas' offense. He hit his second and third home runs of the season, one day after hitting his first. It was the first multi-home run game by a Ranger in 2015.

Peguero's seventh-inning home run ended Astros reliever Will Harris' stretch of 28 2/3 scoreless innings, which was the longest active streak in the majors. Peguero also scored in the third and knocked in a run with a sacrifice fly in the fifth.

Texans manager Jeff Banister saw exactly what he wanted from his outfielder at the plate: aggressiveness.

"This is a big man with a lot of power," Banister said of Peguero. "Go and drill the baseball. That's what we're looking for."

Peguero and third baseman Adrian Beltre each had three hits for Texas. Peguero and catcher Robinson Chirinos knocked in three runs apiece.

Houston right-hander Samuel Deduno struggled early, allowing four runs in the second inning and two in the third.

Peguero hit the first home run of the night in the top of the second. Later in the inning, center fielder Delino DeShields hit an RBI groundout, and right fielder Shin-Soo Choo knocked a two-run home run to give the Rangers a 4-0 lead.

Texas continued to find ways to score in the third when Beltre hit a standup double, advanced on a flyout and then scored on Deduno's wild pitch. Three batters later, Chirinos ripped a line drive down the third base line for a double, scoring Peguero from first base, making it 6-0.

Astros fans began to boo with one out in the fifth inning when Deduno gave up another four runs. Peguero scored designated hitter Prince Fielder with a sacrifice fly, and Chirinos followed with a two-run double. Two batters later, DeShields scored Chrinos with a single, which promoted Astros manager A.J. Hinch to replace his pitcher.

"You know two four-run innings are really hard, it's hard to navigate through," Hinch said. "He took one for the team later in the game to get us a bridge to the rest of our bullpen, 'cause I wanted to leave our setup (men) and closer in the 'pen. But all around, just a forgettable series for us."

Deduno allowed 10 runs on 11 hits and three walks with four strikeouts, two home runs and one wild pitch over 4 2/3 innings.

Deduno's performance was not something Hinch wanted to address postgame.

"Obviously, I know there can be a ton of questions about it, we'll talk about it as a group as we would. Sit down with Sam and how we get him better," Hinch said. "You know we've got the full series in Anaheim and an off day before we have to address it."

The Astros ended Lewis' shutout bid in the eighth when second baseman Jonathan Villar singled home catcher Jason Castro.

"Nothing really changed," Lewis said. "I knew (Villar) was going to be hacking. I threw a slider and he hit it. ... I was trying to throw strikes and get outs. It didn't really matter at that point. I was just trying to have another quick inning."

Houston first baseman Chris Carter knocked a two-run home run off reliever Spencer Patton with two outs in the ninth.
