After Tuesday night’s amazing pitching duel between Lance McCullers and Shohei Ohtani, tonight Astros pitching by committee continued the good work. Meanwhile, the dormant Astros home run bats came alive, unleashing five homers accounting for all Astros scoring, giving the Astros a 9-1 win
The bad news is Jose Urquidy, who was looking as sharp as he ever has in his career, left the game with one out and no one on in the fourth with discomfort in his shoulder. Up to that point, he looked like a machine. He threw 44 pitches, 34 for strikes, seven of those whiffs.
