In this story:

After finishing off a 1-9 road trip with a loss to the Seattle Mariners on Monday afternoon, the Houston Astros returned home to face the Colorado Rockies for the second time in a week. Last week, the Rockies swept the Astros as part of their disastrous road trip.

Both teams came into the game on lengthy losing streaks and something had to give in the series opener on Monday night. Houston exploded for six second-inning runs and held off Colorado late to break an eight-game losing streak with a 7-6 victory. It was a win that was needed for a banged-up Astros team that had several key players hit the injured list on their trip.

Houston will look to win the series on Wednesday night. Here is a rundown of the middle game of the series, including how to watch, pitching matchups, and injury updates.
