 Hunter Brown came in with some momentum. He had nine quality starts in his last ten outings. J.P. Crawford certainly made him work in the very first at-bat of the game. Nine-pitch at-bat. Josh Rojas followed. A 12-pitch at-bat. But it was Brown getting the same result both times, winning both matchups with strikeouts and getting out of the first. They had to go to the third, though, before the Astros did their damage. And unfortunately, all the damage came in one inning.
