last night's loss

Astros News

After a solid run that had fans cautiously optimistic, the Astros took a step back by dropping their second consecutive series, falling 7-2 to the Padres. With a record now at 60-58, the struggle to claim a series win in San Diego since 2015 continues to haunt them, while Fernando Tatis capitalized on the Astros' pitching woes. Cristian Javier, who's had a rough season, faces mounting pressure as Houston aims to regroup and find its footing. The talk surrounding Carlos Correa's recovery adds another layer of intrigue, while the team has shown flashes of brilliance, rushing Correa back could be more of a gamble than a solution. With the division still within reach, the Astros must find their rhythm against playoff contenders if they want to turn their season around.
