Geoff Blum provided half of the offense for the Astros (13-15) with a three-run double in the third against the Diamondbacks (19-8).
D-backs starter Edgar Gonzalez (1-2) was knocked out of that same scoring inning, and Arizona never had a chance after that, despite the shaky start from Jack Cassel. Doug Brocail (1-0) got the win in relief, and Jose Valverde (S 5) picked up the save, striking out the side.
This afternoon, it’s an aging Randy Johnson versus Shawn Chacon at 3:40 pm EDT.
