Astros Vs. Pirates: Game 2 Preview, TV Info And More

The Astros are on their lengthiest road losing streak of the season at seven games and are also riding a five game overall losing streak after losing to the Pirates in their series opener on Monday.

It was looking up for the Stros in the beginning, since they jumped out to an early 1-0 lead and didn't allow any Pittsburgh hits in the first inning. After that, the Bucs went off for 11 runs on 18 hits and the Stros could only watch.

Jordan Lyles made the point after the game that Pittsburgh had the better baseball players on Monday. Hopefully for the Stros, that's not the case on Tuesday, or we'll just see the losses pile up.

Lucas Harrell and A.J. Burnett are your starting pitchers in this one. Take a look at the game schedule and broadcast information:

Date/Time: Tuesday, July 3, 7:05 p.m. ET
