Astros rebound in a big way vs. Orioles

Starter Collin McHugh was roughed up in the second inning, surrendering five hits to a struggling Orioles offense and eventually returning to the dugout with a four-run deficit.

His offense, which has become notable for erasing deficits late in games, instead broke out immediately, with a six-hit, five-run third inning highlighted by back-to-back home runs from Evan Gattis and Luis Valbuena.

"It's rare, I think, in our game to sort of get punched in the mouth with a four spot and come back and answer an inning later," said manager A.
