Preview
The Astros' winning streak came to an end Monday at the hands of all pitchers, Ross Detwiler. Detwiler had a 8.66 ERA coming to the game, but Houston was only able to get one run off the righty. It just means the Astros can take the first step to a new winning streak tonight.
Scott Feldman takes the mound today for Houston. He comes into the game with three-straight quality starts under his belt and his longest outing in 2015 in his most recent outing. Feldman held the high-powered Mariners to just two runs on eight hits over seven innings. The Rangers will be Feldman's final stop in a early tour around the American League West, he is 2-1 in games played against the West.
