Mike Carp went 2-for-4 with an RBI double and two runs scored against the Astros on Thursday. Carp figured to start slow after getting just two at-bats during the first two weeks of the season, but he's capitalized on his few starts of late, going 7-for-13 with four RBI since April 17. Unfortunately, he'll likely head right back to the bench with left-hander Erik Bedard starting for Houston tomorrow.
