Obstruction Call on Astros Proves Costly in 3-1 Loss vs D'Backs

Justin Verlander was cruising vs the Diamondbacks on Sunday, before they finally got to him in the sixth, when A.J. Pollock lined a run-scoring triple and was awarded home on an obstruction call after getting tangled with Bregman on a wild throw to third.

The loss was Verlander’s first in 12 regular-season starts and his first with Houston (9-1) since an in-season trade from Detroit last year. The Astros have now lost five of their last six games.
