The Colorado Rockies signed Thairo Estrada this offseason to be their regular second baseman. But things didn’t start out smoothly, as Estrada missed nearly the first two months of the season due to a right wrist fracture,

Estrada, who boosted his average to .317, went 3 for 4. He tied the game, 2-2, with a two-run homer to left off Astros left-hander Brandon Walter in the first. Estrada’s infield grounder scored Kyle Farmer to put Colorado in front, 3-2, in the third.
