Following an impressive 6-1 start to their season, the Astros have looked rather dreadful in these last five games. The most recent series against the Tigers, in particular, was rough to watch. And now there is the question based on last night’s developments if that series finale should’ve been actually postponed due to health concerns.
What a mess of a first home stand.
Health issues aside for a moment, the Tigers did outplay the Astros for almost every minute of that three-game series. Before a last-minute run in the bottom of the ninth in the finale, Houston’s bats were cold with not scoring more than three runs in any of their preceding four losses.
