HOUSTON -- Friday's 5-1 loss to the Royals was a rough defensive game for Astros catcher Evan Gattis, who allowed runs on a sixth-inning catcher's interference and a bases-loaded passed ball in the eighth.
The Royals scored another pair of runs after the passed ball, putting the game out of reach and handing the Astros their second straight loss.
The Astros trailed 1-0 and were on the verge of getting out of the sixth unscathed, until Gattis' glove made contact with Paulo Orlando's bat.
