Tatsuya Imai (W, 2-2) hurled 6 innings of no-hit ball, Yordan Alvarez and Christian Walker homered and the Houston Astros (24-31) pummeled the Texas Rangers (24-29) 9-0 in the first game of their four-game series at Globe Life Park in Arlington.

The Texas Rangers had zero hits but the Houston Astros scored nine runs.

As frustrating and inconsistent as this season has been for Astros fans, one question is becoming impossible to ignore: how much trust should this fan base have in general manager Dana Brown between now and the end of the season? The timing of that question matters because, despite early struggles, injuries, and inconsistent play, the Astros remain […]

The Houston Rockets have an identity. They may not have much else. You may not like that identity. You still can’t deny its existence. When rival fans think of the Rockets, they have a clear image in their minds. They’re scrappy. The Rockets are the best rebounding team in basketball. They’re among the best defensive […]

It rained all morning on the North Side of Chicago, but by game time the rain had left the area and it became a beautiful, sunny, late spring afternoon at Wrigley Field. The sky might as well have kept on pouring, because the Astros rained down three home runs off Shōta Imanaga and defeated the […]
Christian Walker continued his hot streak with a 3-run homer, and Nick Allen went 3-for-3 with a solo HR and 2 RBI as the Astros (23-31) held off the Cubs (29-24) 8-5 to complete a 3 game sweep in Chicago. Peter Lambert (W, 3-4) survived a tough 2nd inning in which he allowed 3 ER […]

Sunday notes… Cubs lineup: Astros lineup: Shōta Imanaga, LHP vs. Peter Lambert, RHP Shōta Imanaga’s last start was… not up to his previous efforts this year. The Brewers hit him hard.

AAA: Sugar Land Space Cowboys (21-29) lost 6-0 (BOX SCORE) Weiss started for Sugar Land and allowed 5 runs over 5.1 innings while striking out 6 batters. It was a quiet day for the offense […]
Alperen Sengun had an opportunity to prove that his 2024-2025 All-Star campaign wasn’t a fluke, and that Raphael Stone and Ime Udoka were right to hand him the keys to the franchise when they traded away Jalen Green and brought in a 37-year-old Kevin Durant. The result? I guess you could say he did that? […]
So let me get this straight. After Friday’s loss to the Astros, here’s what Cubs manager Craig Counsell said he would do: So what do we get as “something different”? Pete Crow-Armstrong leading off, Nico Hoerner batting cleanup and Ian Happ getting a day off. That’s it. That’s not a “different look,” in my view. […]
