Sup, everyone. Scott filling in for CK this week as we preview the three-game series pitting the Houston Astros against a former NL Central rival and now interleague for, the Milwaukee Brewers. Before we dive into this weekend’s matchup against the Brewers, a quick recap of the previous series:
The Astros are coming off a series victory against the Baltimore Orioles in which they won two of three contests. Houston fell behind 3-0 early in the first game but rallied with two homeruns in the fifth inning to tie the game, which eventually went to extra innings.
Cionel Perez gave the Astros, who were coming off a 14-inning game in Seattle, a big boost by tossing three perfect innings in relief.
