Houston Astros’ outfielder George Springer helped back up Dallas Keuchel by launching a pair of solo home runs in the 6-3 win over the Colorado Rockies, grabbing game one of this three-game set.
This team has been fond of plating runs during the home half of the first inning over the last couple of games and that didn’t change tonight. Outfielder Preston Tucker got things going on an RBI single to Brandon Barnes, sending Springer across home plate to grab the 1-0 lead early on.
