Jose Altuve was forced out of a game against the Giants after being hit by a pitch in his left foot, eventually leaving in the second inning due to a contusion. Nick Allen stepped in at second base after Altuve played defense in the first inning. At 36, Altuve continues to deliver with a .240 batting average, 13 homers, and 35 RBIs this season. Earlier this month, he reached 2,471 career hits — passing Bobby Abreu for fourth-most by a Venezuelan-born MLB player — and also hit his 247th career home run as a second baseman, moving into eighth all-time at the position.
