Leiter, the Rangers’ rookie right-hander, held the Astros hitless into the seventh inning at Globe Life Field in May. His first batter Friday dashed any hope of a repeat. Isaac Paredes bounced a leadoff single up the middle to begin the bottom of the first. A walk and two groundouts produced Houston’s first run.

HOUSTON (AP) — Wyatt Langford homered with a career-high tying four hits and Adolis García added a solo shot to lead the Texas Rangers to a 7-3 win over the Houston Astros on Friday night.

Before Friday’s game, both teams wore T-shirts honoring the victims of the tragic flood that ravaged Kerr County.

But over a decade ago, the Astros had considered trading away Altuve for a player from the Kansas City Royals. And on the Crush City Territory podcast with Chandler Rome and Tyler Stafford, former Astros general manager Jeff Luhnow revealed the story behind such trade rumors.

The Texas Rangers and Houston Astros are getting set to kick off a crucial three-game series at Daikin Park that will take both teams to the All-Star break. But

First baseman Jake Burger left Friday’s game with what was described as left quadriceps discomfort.

The five players Houston was going to send were Randy Ceser, Abraham Toro, Josh James, JB Bukauskas, and Kent Emanuel. Only Toro has carved out a solid MLB career, as the other four haven't had the career that would've made the Astros regret such a deal.

Jeff Luhnow made a tone-deaf statement that somehow makes it harder to see him returning to Major League Baseball absent any semblance of contrition.
