Houston Astros Jose Altuve works out without a cast on during batting practice before the start of a MLB baseball game at Minute Maid Park on Saturday, April 29, 2023 in Houston.Cristian Javier’s last start against Philadelphia was in Game 4 of the World Series, when the Astros righthander struck out nine and tossed the first six innings of the first combined no-hitter in postseason history. The Phillies remember it all too well.
Jeremy Peña continued to be fearless against Phillies pitching, homering for the second consecutive game. The Astros shortstop is hitting .359 with four home runs and seven RBIs in 10 career games against Philadelphia, including the World Series.In the fourth inning, Nick Castellanos banished a 1-1 slider onto the train tracks and admired its flight, taken by the view like he was in Paris.
Taking over for Javier in the sixth inning, Houston reliever Phil Maton had his scoreless streak snapped at 11 2/3 innings when Philadelphia first baseman Kody Clemens hit a two-run homer as his father, a seven-time Cy Young Award winner named Roger, watched from the stands.
