The Happy Birthday Kate GameThread

By Kate Stanwick

The Jays will be looking to even the series today. Holding the Astros to single digit runs would be a solid start.

Here are today’s lineups. Vlad Jr is still out after his HBP yesterday, and so is Smoak. Biggio plays first base, Drury’s at 3rd, and Jansen will catch for Clayton Richard.

Today's Lineups

Eric Sogard - 2B Alex Bregman - SS
