 HOUSTON (AP) - The Houston Astros expected more from Mike Lamb than he showed the first two months of the season. On Sunday he exceeded those expectations, hitting a grand slam and driving in five runs as the Astros beat the Seattle Mariners 10-3 to complete a three-game sweep.
Lamb was exceptional throughout the weekend series, going 8-for-10 with two homers, eight RBIs and three doubles. He has 12 RBIs in June after managing just five in April and May combined.
"He's coming on like we feel like he can. He won't hit like this every game, but I expect it like this on most games," Astros manager Phil Garner said, only half-joking.
