    Stan Norfleet and Chris Gordy of Next Up recap the Houston Astros losing game two against the Atlanta Braves 6-2 Tuesday at Minute Maid Park.

    Hunter Brown started on the mound and threw for six innings, allowing just two runs on five hits. Brown was able to bounce back after his last start saw him allow an MLB record of 11 hits and nine runs to the Kansas City Royals in less than a full inning.

    Former top prospect Forrest Whitley was called-up hours before Tuesday's first pitch and made his Major League debut in the ninth inning, becoming the third Astros pitcher to make his debut this season. The Astros will attempt to avoid a sweep by the Braves on Wednesday with J.P. France starting on the mound.

    Stan and Chris talk with sports media personality and Chalk Talk host Kim Davis about the latest updates from the Rockets and Texans, congratulate Texans head coach DeMeco Ryans being named to the Senior Bowl Hall of Fame, react to Toronto Raptors forward Jontay Porter receiving a ban from the NBA for gambling on games and more.
