Josh Reddick ripped the first pitch of Tuesday night’s game under Dee Gordon for a single. For the Marlins, it was the beginning of the end.
Two batters later, the Astros had their first run. Two innings later, the Astros had a four-run lead. And when the game ended, Houston held a 12-2 advantage to take game two of their three-game series against the Marlins.
The Astros knocked Miami starter Tom Koehler out of the game after three innings, making Tuesday his shortest outing of the season. He also allowed eight earned runs, which was also a season-worst.
