The Astros look to extend their series lead to 2-0 after a dominating 6-1 victory yesterday. Houston scored in four of the first five innings and were up by six runs after five innings. Four players had at least two hits and two players drove in two runs.
Lance McCullers was practically untouchable for the Astros, as he threw 6 2⁄3 scoreless innings and didn’t issue a walk.
Things weren’t so smooth on the other side, as Lance Lynn struggled for Chicago. He lasted only 3 2⁄3 innings, allowing five runs on six hits.
