Notes
After 167 days without Astros baseball that counts, it’s finally here. Hunter Brown takes the mound, a healthy Yordan Alvarez is back in the middle of the order, and Jose Altuve, in his 20th year as an Astro, leads off like he owns the place. The one intrigue: Jeremy Peña is on the roster but not in today’s starting lineup, with Carlos Correa holding down shortstop. Whether Peña sees action today or eases back in remains to be seen.
