The Houston Astros welcomed back Lance McCullers Jr. on Saturday night after a 17-day absence due to a foot injury, but his return didn’t go as hoped. This was McCullers’ second difficult start of the season against an NL Central opponent and prompted quite the quip. “The NL Central is kind of like my daddy right now — the Cincy start [May 10] and now the Cubs start,” he said, per Brian McTaggart of MLB.com. There’s, of course, things here and there throughout the course of the games where you look back and you’re like, ‘Oh, I probably could have done better, extended my outing a little bit more, this and that,’ but overall I was throwing the ball after that Cincinnati game really well.
