It was bad from the get-go for Patrick Corbin and the Washington Nationals as the Houston Astros jumped out to an early lead and grabbed the momentum.
We’ve been wondering when AL MVP candidate Alex Bregman was going to break out, and he did so big time in this game. He got the Astros on the board early with an RBI single in the first.
They would tack on another run in the first, but a huge double-play helped Corbin limit the damage.
A Robinson Chirinos home run in the fourth made it a 4-0 game.
