Houston’s offense went hitless for four innings, hit 3-for-11 with runners in scoring position and stranded eight runners on base.
That included when the Astros rallied and scored two runs in the seventh inning to take the lead with no outs, but then allowed Mariners reliever Ryan Borucki to retire Yordan Alvarez, Alex Bregman and Kyle Tucker in order — stranding Yuli Gurriel, who had advanced from first base to third base on back-to-back wild pitches.As of game’s end on Saturday night, the Astros have stood pat at the trade deadline. The loss underscored one of Houston’s needs: Another reliable bat.
Valdez’s three-run first inning put the Astros in an immediate hole. Pressly lost a one-run lead in the ninth inning catalyzed by a leadoff walk and a hard-hit single that escaped Jose Altuve’s glove before Abraham Toro’s game-winning knock. Both pitchers are responsible for Saturday’s result. They are still part of a pitching staff with baseball’s second-best ERA and WHIP .
