Houston just finished up a seven-game road trip with a disappointing total of two wins, and have lost six-of-eight overall after winning 18-of-23. They won only the middle matchup against their most recent opponent, a 6-4 win against the Cleveland Guardians. In their last game, on Sunday, they dropped a 5-0 decision to Shane Bieber, who struck out nine over seven shutout three-hit innings. Houston only managed a total of four hits in the game, and only Yainer Diaz had as much as an extra-base hit, with a double.
Instead of dropping the series finale highlight reel, I included Houston’s most recent victory, their 6-4 win over the Guard on Saturday.
