 Jose Altuve and Mike Trout each had their first full MLB season in 2012. Since then, the two have accounted for 13.6 percent and 11.7 percent of their franchise's hits, the two highest marks in baseball.

 The Astros have averaged 7.56 runs against the Angels this season -- only the Yankees (vs. Orioles) and Rockies (vs. Padres) have averaged more runs against a divisional opponent this season.

 The Astros and Angels swing-and-miss on 20.8 percent and 21.6 percent of all swings, respectively, the lowest and second-lowest marks in MLB this season.

 The Angels have scored 184 runs in the first and second innings this season, most in MLB. The Astros have allowed 106 runs in the first two innings, tied for third fewest in MLB. When leading after six innings, the Astros are 70-5 while the Angels are 50-4, third and fifth best in MLB, respectively.

 There are six American League outfielders with an OPS over 1.000 since the All-Star break (min. 90 PA), and three of them are playing in this series: Mike Trout (1.101), Michael Brantley (1.049) and Brian Goodwin (1.006).

 Yuli Gurriel has a 12-game hitting streak against the Angels entering this series, the longest active streak in MLB. Over these 12 games, he has hit .451 (23/51) with seven home runs, 15 runs scored and 21 RBI.

HP - Scheurwater, 1B - Porter, 2B - Wegner, 3B - Barber

With the Astros facing yet another injury challenge, their need for certain individuals to deliver a bit more than usual once again becomes pronounced.
This time, with shortstop Carlos Correa sidelined indefinitely with back discomfort and utility infielder Aledmys Diaz on the 10-day injured list with an undisclosed illness, the Astros require more of what left fielder Michael Brantley has provided them over the past couple of weeks. And with the Los Angeles Angels set to visit Minute Maid Park for a three-game weekend series starting Friday, Brantley is wielding a red-hot bat at the most opportune time for Houston.

Injuries an added challenge for Astros as Angels arrive

HOUSTON (AP)  Houston manager A.J. Hinch was impressed by how Zack Greinke pitched without his best stuff.
Greinke won his fourth straight start since joining the Astros, and Yuli Gurriel hit a big two-run homer in a 5-4 victory over the Los Angeles Angels on Friday night.
