The Houston Astros came out swinging in Game 4 scoring 10 runs against the Rangers and evening the series 2-2. The game took a big turn when Jose Abreu hit a 3-run homer in the top of the 4th inning. His home run gave the Astros a 7-3 lead and Houston never looked back.

The Astros will need Justin Verlander to have a good performance on Friday, as the club struggled to score runs off Jordan Montgomery in Game 1.

But before that, be sure to watch the reactions and highlights below.

The Houston Astros announced on Monday that additional imaging has revealed that Jeremy Peña is dealing with a small fracture in one of his ribs.

Peña left Friday's game after being hit by a pitch in the ribs. The club originally believed they had avoided any fractures or breaks, but new information has informed them otherwise.

Peña is heading to the 10-day injured list retroactive to June 28. This news comes at an unfortunate time, with Jeremy posting the best regular season numbers of his career. He's currently slashing .322, .378, .489 with an .867 OPS.

Peña will miss the Rockies and Dodgers series at a minimum.

Let's hope the team doesn't rush him back too soon and create an even bigger problem. These quotes above from Dana Brown have me concerned. Playing through injuries can create bad habits, and Jeremy has clearly found his swing this season.
