Justin Maxwell homered for a second consecutive game, helping to lead the Astros to a 5-0 victory over the Phillies on Saturday.
He finished the night 1-for-4 with a run scored and two RBI. His two-run blast off Kyle Kendrick in the first inning gave the Astros an early lead, and would prove to be the difference in the game. He's settled in nicely as the cleanup hitter in the Astros lineup, and has blasted 16 homers with 46 RBI in only 267 at-bats. If you can live with the .236 average, he's been an extremely valuable commodity in most mixed leagues.
