Locked On Astros

Join Eric Huysman and Brett Chancey for the Locked On Astros podcast. In the series finale at Daikin Park on April 30, 2025, the Houston Astros fell to the Detroit Tigers 7–4, missing out on a sweep. Astros rookie AJ Blubaugh made his MLB debut, striking out six over four innings, but was undone by a five-run third inning that included Javy Báez’s ninth career grand slam. All five runs were unearned following a Jeremy Peña throwing error. Jeremy Peña led off the game with his first career leadoff homer, and José Altuve added a two-run double in the fifth. Victor Caratini’s solo shot in the seventh brought the Astros within three, but they ultimately stranded 12 runners and went 2-for-11 with runners in scoring position. Lance McCullers is set to make his season debut Sunday versus the White Sox.Locked On Astros is a daily podcast about the Houston Astros, hosted by Eric Huysman and Brett Chancey.
