Astros Vs. Brewers: Houston Looks For Second Straight Win

The Houston Astros have not won back-to-back games since June 27, when they took two in a row from the San Diego Padres. They will try to match that when they face another struggling team, the Milwaukee Brewers, on Monday. The Brewers have won one of their last 10 games.

The series kicks off with Bud Norris (5-8, 5.05 ERA) taking the mound against Marco Estrada (0-4, 4.52 ERA). Neither pitcher has won a game since May 21.

Norris won his last start against the Brewers, when he gave up one run over seven innings for a victory on May 16.

Estrada has never started against Houston but has faced the Astros six times in relief. Only one Astro, J.D. Martinez, has ever had an RBI against Estrada.

First pitch will be schedule for 7:10 CT and the game can be seen on Fox Sports Houston.
