Summary
The Astros fell 5-1 in their series finale as Ryan O’Hearn lit up Pittsburgh with a two-run homer and the Pirates hit homers in 11 straight games. Isaac Paredes cracked his 100th career homer, but starter Kai-Wei Teng struggled early before settling in — too late. Altuve’s imminent return could reignite the lineup, and with an easier schedule ahead, the Astros have a shot to climb back — currently sitting at just 11% postseason odds. Friday’s game against Oakland also marks a fun mascot celebration for Orbit. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
