Johnson went 0 for 2 with a strikeout before being replaced at third base by Matt Downs. ''I shouldn't have thrown my helmet,'' Johnson said.

News
Houston starter Wandy Rodriguez was very sharp on Wednesday night in a start against the Chicago Cubs. Rodriguez gave up a solo home run to Rob Johnson in the first inning, but didn’t allow another run as he completed seven solid frames for the victory to improve to .500 at 4-4 on the season. Rodriguez surrendered just the one earned run on eight hits without a walk over seven innings. He struck out five batters and his ERA is pristine at 2.14 on the year.

After tossing six scoreless frames his last time out, Astros pitcher J.A. Happ was nearly as impressive on Tuesday against the Cubs. He allowed one run on five hits over six innings of work in the 2-1 win. The left-hander surrendered a solo homer to Alfonso Soriano in the fourth for his lone damage. He was done after throwing 106 pitches, 68 for strikes, and lowered his ERA to 4.56. Happ also struck out six and walked two while earning his fourth win of the season.

News
Astros starting pitcher Lucas Harrell’s sinker was working on Friday against the Dodgers, as he picked up 16 groundball outs and limited the Dodgers to only singles as he picked up the win in a 3-1 game. Harrell scattered five hits and three walks in 7 1/3 innings, with the only run charged to him scoring on a bases-loaded walk by reliever Wilton Lopez, the second pitcher out of the bullpen after Harrell was pulled with one out in the eighth inning. He had no strikeouts in the game, however he was able to induce weak contact to run his record to 4-3 on the season.
