Notes
Yordan Alvarez returns to the lineup after missing two straight games with a sore right ankle, a welcome sight for an Astros offense that has scored just three runs while dropping the first two games of the series. With Houston’s AL West lead down to two games, the Astros will try to salvage the finale and avoid a sweep before returning to Daikin Park for their final six-game homestand of the regular season.
