Jeremy Pena

Pena also scored a run. The double was the 14th of the season for the shortstop, and he was also able to steal his 14th base in the contest. Pena has been outstanding in 2025 with a .322 average, .865 OPS and nine homers over 67 games.

The right-hander allowed just one base on balls on the night while striking out five. He cruised through the first three innings unscathed until the Astros struck for four runs in the fourth inning, including a solo homer off the bat of Isaac Paredes. He then kept them at bay until the seventh where Jeremy Pena smacked a one-out RBI double to chase him from the game and scored later in the inning. Keller got 12 swings and misses on 89 pitches on the evening, posting a CSW of 28 percent. He'll attempt to bounce back as he brings a 4.13 ERA, 1.27 WHIP and a 61/20 K/BB ratio (76 1/3 innings) into a premium matchup against the Marlins on Tuesday.

Pena led off the ballgame with a double off of Mitch Keller but he was ultimately left stranded at third base. He then chased Keller with an RBI double in the seventh inning that extended the Astros' lead to 5-2. Pena then swiped third base before scoring on a sacrifice fly off the bat of Jose Altuve. Pena also legged out a two-out infield single in the ninth and rode home on a two-run blast by Isaac Paredes. He has done a phenomenal job atop the Astros' lineup this season, slashing .318/.378/.492 with nine homers, 31 RBI and 11 stolen bases in what has been an All-Star caliber campaign.

The 24-year-old rookie outfielder smacked a two-out, two-run single off of Mitch Keller in the fourth inning that extended the Astros' lead to 4-2. He then swiped second base but was left stranded there. Melton also led off the seventh inning with a single and scored on an RBI double by Jeremy Pena. With the two-hit attack, Melton is now 3-for-12 (.250) in his limited action with the Astros. Hopefully this strong performance will start to earn him additional at-bats going forward.

Bradley allowed three hits, walked two and struck out 10. The only run of the game came in the first inning when Jeremy Pena reached on an error by Junior Caminero and later came around to score. While there was a lot of contact in the first inning with the Astros putting the first five pitches of the game in play, Bradley settled in and racked up 10 strikeouts without allowing another run. It was a hard-luck loss to say the least. Bradley will take a 4-5 record and 3.95 ERA into his next start against the Marlins at home next weekend.
