Final Score: Pirates 6, Astros 0
Record: 50-32, first in the AL West.
Winning pitcher: Joe Musgrove (6-7) 4.27 ERA
Losing pitcher: Brad Peacock (6-6) 4.13 ERA
The Astros looked to bounce back from their 14-2 loss last night in the rubber match against The Pirates. Peacock was pulled after giving up six runs in just three innings of work. Much like yesterday, The Astros offense had to start from behind and could never catch up. With today's loss, The Astros have now lost three series in a row.
On to the next one: The Astros start a three game weekend series against their division rivals, The Seattle Mariners. Wade Miley (6-4, 3.51 ERA) makes the start for the Astros. The Mariners have not announced their starter.
