The Astros are a sparkling 11-1 against the Angels in 2016, matching Houston's highest single-season winning percentage (.917) ever versus a single opponent (minimum 10 games). The Astros also went 11-1 against the Expos in 1969, the Cubs in 1980 and the Mets in 1993.

Following a pair of one-run losses at Texas, the Angels returned the favor with a 5-4 victory over the Rangers on Wednesday. Over their last four series, the Angels are 3-1 in series finales, but just 1-8 in all other games.

The Astros are coming off a three-game sweep at Oakland and have now won six of their past seven games. At 81-71, Houston is 1.0 game behind Baltimore in the scramble for the second wild-card spot in the American League.

Ricky Nolasco is 5-1 over seven career starts against the Astros, when his teams have gone 6-1. He's fashioned a 2.03 ERA over the last four of those starts, but hasn't faced Houston since 2012.

With wins in two of his three starts this September, Mike Fiers is looking to win three games in a calendar month for the first time since August 2014 (four wins). The last time he pitched at Minute Maid Park on September 11, Fiers allowed seven runs to the Cubs in just 2.1 innings, his shortest outing of the year.

Evan Gattis clubbed a pair of home runs on Wednesday to reach 30 for the first time in his career. He now has smacked 11 homers since August 24, tying for the third most in the majors, while slugging .716.

HP - Joyce, 1B - Fairchild, 2B - Hoye, 3B - Hudson

HOUSTON -- The Astros had established such a comfort in the reliability of their high-leverage relievers that little could prepare them for what unfolded on Friday night against the Angels.
Right-handers Luke Gregerson and Ken Giles, half of the Astros' quartet of rock-solid relief pitchers (a group that also includes right-handers Chris Devenski and Will Harris) combined to cough up a three-run lead in a 10-6 loss that severely damaged the Astros' playoff aspirations. Gregerson allowed a run on two hits in the eighth inning; Giles blew his fifth save by coming apart at the seams in the ninth.
