Sewald pitched one inning, giving up two runs on a hit and a walk while striking out two Tuesday against the Astros.
Called upon to protect a 4-2 lead in the ninth inning, Sewald walked Jose Altuve to open the frame and later surrendered a two-run homer to Alex Bregman. It was the second time in three outings that he has blown a save but only the second time in his last 12 outings that he was tagged for any earned runs. Since returning from the paternity list Aug. 16, Sewald has posted a 2.25 ERA and 1.25 WHIP.
