The Houston Astros took two of three from the good guys last weekend and save for a Clint Barmes error in the second game, they might have had a sweep. Today's POTD looks at the series finale at the Dome Sunday.
The Houston Astros logo appears on the left field scoreboard prior to the introduction of the starting lineups.
Bill Hall stands beside the batting cage as he waits his turn for batting practice.
Matt Downs also waits to take his cuts in the cage.
Pitcher Enerio Del Rosario gets ready to toss a baseball into the outfield seats.
Catcher J.R. Towles stretches for the camera.
Former Jays pitching coach Brad Arnsberg stands next to J.R. Towles with baseballs in hand.
Astros starter Wandy Rodriguez looks less than impressed during his warm up in the bullpen. He lasted six innings and gave up two solo homers among six hits and three walks.
Stretching from left to right in front of an unidentified man in shorts: Chris Johnson, Angel Sanchez, Brian Bogusevic and Clint Barmes. Sanchez and Barmes had two hits apiece, Johnson had one and Bogusevic had none.
Hunter Pence checks his swing as Jays catcher J.P. Arencibia blocks a ball in the dirt. Both of them homered in the contest.
Former Jays draft pick Brett Wallace offers encouragement to Michael Bourn after he crossed home plate in the first inning. Bourn's run did not count as Carlos Lee had flied out to end the inning. Bourn had a hit, a walk and a stolen base while Wallace had two hits, a walk and drove in the game's first run as part of the Astros 3-2 victory over the Jays.
