HOUSTON -- The next four days figure to be long ones for Astros starter Scott Feldman, who will eagerly await getting the ball for his next start after giving up six runs and nine hits in three innings during a 7-1 loss to the Rangers on Tuesday night at Minute Maid Park.
The veteran right-hander, who had posted a 2.84 ERA in his past 12 starts entering Tuesday, allowed five of the first six hitters he faced in the game to reach, with Prince Fielder hitting a two-run double and Carlos Peguero tagging him for a two-run homer and a 4-0 Rangers lead in the first.
