The Astros looked like their old dominant World Champions selves today in all aspects of the game. And it started early.
Right out the gate the Astros scored one in the first and it could have been worse for the Pirates. A Kyle Tucker single scored Alex Bregman for the only run, but Yordan Alvarez was thrown out trying for third to end the threat.
in the second inning the Astros did not miss their opportunity to pour it on, putting up three runs, starting with a Jeremy Pena double followed by an RBI Mauricio Dubon single.
