The Houston Astros finally had two games this week in which their starting lineup featured all four of their stalwarts -- Yordan Alvarez, Jose Altuve, Alex Bregman and Kyle Tucker -- for the first time since early June.

It's unclear when the foursome might be together again after Altuve sustainedan injury on Wednesday in the fifth inning of a 5-4 loss to the visiting Athletics.
