Wallner was responsible for the only run of the game for Minnesota, as he took Cade Gibson deep in the seventh inning. He’s now gone deep eight times with 14 RBI, and it’s worth remembering that those numbers have come in just 47 games and 151 at-bats.

Festa’s stuff was good, as he generated 15 swings and misses on his pitches during his four frames. His command was not, as he gave up a two-run homer to Agustin Ramirez and he missed his spots several times throughout the contest. It’s still nice to see him missing bats, however, and he was better than this line indicates. He’ll take a 5.49 ERA into a scheduled start Wednesday against the Cubs.

It’s just a routine day off for the veteran, who hit .269 in 24 games in June with two home runs, 11 runs scored, and 10 RBI. He will be replaced at shortstop by Brooks Lee today as Lee continues to play every day by moving all around the infield.

This was a big game for Castro after a cold few weeks. He helped push across his squad’s first inning run, scored after smoking a lead-off double in the fourth and then chipped in another single in the ninth. All three of those knocks were hit at least 101 mph as Castro has enjoyed one of his best offensive seasons to date with a .798 OPS to this point. Also, he’s now regularly hitting in the heart of their order and will have plenty of chances as a run producer moving forward.

The big one was a two-run triple that tied the game in the seventh. In truth, though, that was just an 80-mph fly that should have been caught by either the left fielder or the center fielder. Brenton Doyle, though, appeared to be worried about the possibility of a collision and came up short on a diving attempt. Smith, who we promise actually does hit the ball hard quite often, also had a 70-mph double and an 81-mph single in this one. His average is all of the way up to .291.

The 26-year-old outfielder was plucked from the Blue Jays for cash considerations after he had been designated for assignment in mid-May. On the season, Berroa has hit .270/.358/.345 with just one homer, 15 RBI and 20 stolen bases in 205 plate appearances at the Triple-A level.

McCormick has been out since the start of June with his oblique strain. The 30-year-old was not getting consistent playing time prior to the injury, and it seems unlikely that role will change even with the gluttony of injuries Houston has dealt with that could have opened up the depth chart. He should be able to come off the IL near the All-Star break if there are no setbacks.
