 The Astros and Dodgers have each gone 6-4 in interleague play this season. The Astros pitching staff has a 1.70 ERA and .196 opponent average in these ten interleague games; both of these marks rank first in MLB.

 The Dodgers scored 21 runs on 18 hits yesterday, their highest single-game run total since scoring 22 against the Rockies in 2001. Eleven different players had a hit in the contest, something that has only been done seven times across MLB this season.

 Evan Gattis is slashing .333/.429/.600 since the All-Star break after posting a .239/.297/.488 slash line in the first half of the season. In his past two games, he is 5-for-10 with two doubles and a home run.

 Yasmani Grandal has hit six home runs since the All-Star break, the most by any catcher in MLB. At home, Grandal has a 1.028 OPS while his OPS away from home is just .733. This is the third-largest OPS split among National Leaguers, behind only Trevor Story and teammate Manny Machado.

 Justin Verlander has been held short of 100 pitches in three consecutive starts for the first time this season. He took two losses in this stretch, and his opponents hit .294 against him in these games. His 0.89 WHIP this season still ranks second in baseball (Chris Sale, 0.87).

 Alex Wood has won six consecutive decisions, and in his eight starts over this stretch he has a 2.61 ERA. Wood has made three interleague starts this season, and despite making quality starts in two of three, he has an ERA of 7.47 and opponent average of .292 in those starts.
