On the heels of absorbing a three-hitter at the right hand of Lucas Giolito on Saturday, the Houston Astros entered the finale of their three-game series at the Chicago White Sox still leading the majors in runs (504), hits (851) and batting (.268).
On Sunday, White Sox left-hander Carlos Rodon combined with two relievers to limit the Astros to one hit while sending Houston to its fourth shutout loss and third over the last six games.
The Astros will open a six-game homestand against the Cleveland Indians Monday in the throes of an offensive slump, one that qualifies as an extended stretch for the best offense in baseball.
