Philadelphia Phillies Visit Houston Astros — Series Preview

Houston is hot off the heels of a 5-1 road trip, where they swept the formerly 14-5 Atlanta Braves then took two-of-three against the formerly 19-3 Tampa Bay Rays.

In the capper, Hunter Brown threw a gem, limiting the Rays to two hits and two walks over seven shutout innings on Wednesday night. Jeremy Peña scored the only run of the evening for either team, scampering home on Rays shortstop Wander Franco’s fielding error in the first inning. Mauricio Dubón extended his MLB season-high hitting streak to 20 games.
