Short predictably went unclaimed on waivers after being designated for assignment last week to make room for Carlos Correa’s return to Houston.

Short finally got the Astros on the board with his 340-foot (95.3 mph EV) two-run shot off of Jeffrey Springs in the fifth inning, but all that did was pull the Astros to within seven runs at 9-2. The 30-year-old infielder has done a decent job in his limited action with the Astros this season, slashing .243/.300/.459 with a pair of long balls and seven RBI.
