Astros LHP Rodriguez looks for first win

May 13, 2007 - 1:56 PM Arizona (20-18) at Houston (17-19) 2:05 pm EDT

HOUSTON (Ticker) -- Wandy Rodriguez gets another shot at notching his first win since last July when he faces the Arizona Diamondbacks in the rubber game of a weekend series.

The lefthander's last win came against the Texas Rangers on July 2, 2006, a span of 18 starts. In his last outing, Rodriguez (0-3, 4.66 ERA) allowed five runs and eight hits in a 7-6 loss to Cincinnati last Tuesday.

Rodriguez threw seven shutout innings in his lone start against Arizona last year.

Minute Maid Park has been a house of horrors for Doug Davis (2-3, 2.36). The Diamondbacks lefthander is 0-8 with a 5.50 ERA in nine career starts here.

Davis has pitched well recently, posting a 1.73 ERA in his last four starts, but is just 1-2 in that span due to lack of run support or bullpen issues.

In his last start, Davis allowed just two runs and five hits in six innings but Arizona failed to score a run while he was in the game, and he received no-decision in a 4-3 win over Philadelphia on Monday.
