Hunter Brown pitches for the injured Cristian Javier. R U kidding me?
The Astros are geniuses at inventing new ways to lose. Last night, a catcher’s interference led to a blown save by Ryan Pressly, and the Astros ended up losing in extra innings when Jose Altuve was thrown out easily attempting to score on a would-be game-tying sacrifice fly ball.
With Cristian Javier suffering from neck “discomfort,” the Astros must rely on Hunter Brown (ERA 10.54) to win the series against Washington.
