The Houston Astros have had to put together a pair of lengthy winning streaks to stay in the National League wild-card race, while the Colorado ROCKIES are still in the hunt due to a weak NL West. The Astros and ROCKIES, both six games back in their respective races, meet tonight at Coors Field in the opener of a three-game series. Houston has put together its second eight-game winning streak in less than a month to get within six games of Milwaukee for the NL's final playoff spot with 22 to play.

Michael Bourn went 3-for-4 and scored once for Houston, which will try for its first nine-game winning streak since September 20-28, 2006.. ...
