HOUSTON —

Houston has had little production from their designated hitters so far in the series.

“He tried everything,” Baker said of Gurriel. “He came in yesterday, got treatment. Came in this morning early, got treatment. Didn’t respond well enough to play. He tried to run. And from a guy who had knee injuries, the hardest thing to do is to stop and then to round the bases or have lateral movement.”

Lee, 24, appeared in 12 games for Houston this season, going 4-for-25 at the plate. Gurriel was hitting .347 during the playoffs with two home runs before going down.

“Yuli’s been one of our best hitters in the postseason, so, obviously, it stinks not having him,” Chas McCormick said.

The Astros lead the Philadelphia Phillies 3-2 in the best-of-seven series.
