Michael Wacha allowed four runs with two strikeouts over six innings in a loss against the Astros on Tuesday.

Wacha gave up a solo homer to Jeremy Peña in the first inning, then was taken deep again by Peña for a second solo shot in the third. It was Yordan Alvarez who later got to Wacha in the fifth, launching a two-run homer. Wacha would return for one more scoreless inning, ending his day after six with two strikeouts. The 35-year-old right-hander will take a 3.34 ERA, 1.10 WHIP, and a 149/49 K/BB ratio across 188 2/3 innings into a start against the Pirates in Pittsburgh on Sunday.
