Astros Best Nationals 7-4 In Spring Training Opener

Baseball is back. That is worth celebrating, even if it is a meaningless Spring Training game.

The Astros jumped out to an early lead in this one, taking a 7-0 by the end of the third inning. Chas McCormick led off the game on a great note with a standup triple off Patrick Corbin.

It's time to start chompin'! @chazzyfizzz with triple to lead off the season!

Mauricio Dubón, who would have a three-hit game against the Nationals, would drive McCormick in almost immediately.
