Revised Astros lineup: Pence, Towles out; Bourgeois, Corporan in
Hunter Pence was scratched from the lineup before Saturday’s game with a hyper-extended left elbow, which he suffered on a diving play at first base in the series opener.
Pence will fly to Houston Sunday morning — he couldn’t get a red-eye flight out of Los Angeles on Saturday — to be examined by team doctors and undergo an MRI on his elbow.
J.R. Towles was also a late scratch. His ailment is being categorized simply as “soreness.”
The new lineup is:
Bourn CF
Bourgeois RF
Keppinger 2B
Lee LF
Wallace 1B
Johnson 3B
Barmes SS
Corporan C
W. Rodriguez P
