Houston Astros at San Diego Padres, 9:05PM CDT

Your Houston Astros play game 3 of a 4 game series against the Padres tonight at Petco Field and still look for their first win of the season.  Astros send Wandy Rodriguez to the hill against future hall of famer, Greg Maddux. 

Lineups
Houston San Diego
1.  Bourn, CF 1.  Giles, RF
2.  Pence, RF 2.  Iguchi, 2B
3.  Berkman, 1B 3.  Kouzmanoff, 3B
4.  Lee, LF 4.  Gonzalez, A, 1B
5.  Tejada, SS 5.  Hairston, CF
6.  Blum, 2B 6.  Greene, SS
7.  Wigginton, 3B 7.  Barrett, C
8.  Towles, C 8.  Huber, LF
9.  Rodriguez, P 9.  Maddux, P

Lineup looks pretty much the same as last nights for the Astros, only Blum is getting the start at 2nd instead of Mark Loretta.  The Padres changed theirs up a little more by sending Barrett to call the game for Maddux and Huber to take left field duties for McAnulty.  That could be good for the Astros because both Bard and McAnulty have started off pretty well hitting .500 in this young season each. 

Hopefully Wandy will look more like the "Home" Wandy from last season and less like the "Road" Wandy from last season tonight.  Game on!
