Despite leading the league in hits and on-base percentage, the Houston Astros are 6-5 due to a struggling pitching staff.

The Astros boast a league-best .394 on-base percentage and 111 hits, with Yordan Alvarez and Jose Altuve driving the production. However, the pitching staff has surrendered 32 runs in the last four games, resulting in a 5.75 ERA and recent losses.
