HOUSTON (AP) — The Houston Astros reinstated catcher Yainer Diaz and right-hander Hunter Brown from the injured list and both contributed in a 4-2 win over the Detroit Tigers on Tuesday night.
Diaz had been out for more than two months with an oblique strain after he was hurt during batting practice. Brown went on the IL with a shoulder strain in April, a year after he won 12 games with a 2.43 ERA.
Brown started on the mound and allowed one run, three hits and three walks while striking out seven over 5 2/3 innings. Diaz was 1 for 3 with a walk and threw out a runner attempting to steal second base.
The Astros also designated righty Jayden Murray for assignment and optioned catcher Collin Price to Triple-A Sugar Land. The 29-year-old Murray had a 7.43 ERA in eight games this season. The 26-year-old Price was 2 for 12 in seven games this year.
