Notes
After squandering a late lead in Monday night’s opener, the Astros will try to even the series behind Tatsuya Imai. Houston hands the ball to Imai after a rough outing from Mike Burrows, while the lineup gets a slight shake-up with Zach Dezenzo in left field, Brice Matthews in center, Nick Allen at shortstop, and Christian Vázquez behind the plate.
