The Houston Astros received a much-needed boost from reliever-turned-starter Kai-Wei Teng, who pitched six shutout innings in a 3-0 victory over the Chicago Cubs, striking out six and lowering his ERA to 2.19. Despite the Astros’ struggles with the worst team ERA in the league, Teng has shown significant improvement after a shaky start to the season. His sweeper has been particularly effective, contributing to the Cubs’ struggles at the plate. This performance gives the Astros hope as they seek to revitalize their pitching staff.
