From the Office of the County Clerk - G43: Astros versus Rangers

Colby Lewis (2-0, 3.12) versus Lance McCullers Jr (0-0, 9.64)
The Astros were looking to start a home stand on the right note against a Rangers team that struggled getting swept by the Oakland A's, seem cool offensively, and have a bullpen in tatters at the moment. Plus, the Rangers were starting a righty junkballer on the mound who struggles to pump gas anywhere in the 90's, with occasional home run difficulties. Plus, the Astros were starting their own righty pitching phenom, who has the stuff to strike out any player in the game, with a wicked breaking pitch that he can add or subtract on, and a riding fastball that occasionally nears three figures on the gun.
