It’s the Astros’ weakest starter against the Twins’ finest. Time for the bats to activate.
The Astros lost yet another extra inning game yesterday after Jose Altuve’s grand slam gave the Astros a late inning lead. Yesterday loss was due to a bullpen meltdown. Today the starting pitching will be challenged. Brandon Bielak goes for the Astros against the Twins’ Joe Ryan, who is 7-1 with a 2.21 ERA.
By the way, this game marks the exact 1⁄3 mark of the season.
