Pitcher Notes

Team	Notes
Athletics	Manaea struggled with the long ball his last time out, which also came against the Astros. The lefty allowed five runs on six hits, surrendering two homers in the loss.
Astros	McCullers is making first start at home before fans since July 29, 2018 — the start before he injured his right elbow in Los Angeles. That led to Tommy John surgery and missing the ‘19 season, though he pitched in relief late in ‘18.
