Notes
The Astros and Mets meet in the rubber game of the three-game series after splitting the first two. Houston enters Sunday 68-68 but remains two games ahead of Texas in the AL West after the Astros, Rangers, and Mariners all lost Saturday. Yordan Alvarez leads the American League in all three Triple Crown categories, batting .320 with 37 home runs and 93 RBI. Ethan Pecko makes his third major league start, while Houston will again have to contend with Juan Soto in the heart of the Mets lineup.
