Rangers 11, Astros 3: The Unpleasant Side of a Sweep

One month into the season it looks like the fifth starter spot is still up for grabs.

I have to say last week's games were much more fun.  After a 10 game winning streak the bottom fell out this week against the Rangers, who completed the series sweep tonight with an 11-3 win.  Colby Lewis scattered six hits and a walk in his eight innings.  He only allowed one run long after the outcome was decided.  The lone bright spots on offense were Chris Carter hitting a 2-run home run in the bottom of the ninth, and Evan Gattis going 2-4 with a double.
