Kyle Tucker MLB-Leading HRs, Jose Abreu Return, Amen Thompson All-Rookie Ho

Matt Thomas and Ross Villarreal of The Matt Thomas Show recap the Houston Astros defeating the Milwaukee Brewers 9-4 on Sunday to take the weekend series 2-1. The Astros have now won nine of their last 11 games, improving to 21-26 on the season and stand only four games back from the lead in the AL West. Kyle Tucker struck out in each of his first three at-bats Sunday, but after switching cleats, Tucker smashed a home run in each of his last two at bats, increasing his MLB-leading total to 15 home runs this season. José Abreu was demoted to the Florida Complex League on May 1; however, general manager Dana Brown said Abreu will play a few more minor-league games and could join the Astros in Oakland this weekend. What will the lineup look like if Abreu returns, especially with Jon Singleton remaining productive at first base? Matt and Ross congratulate Rockets guard Amen Thompson for being named to the NBA All-Rookie Second Team, criticize Denver Nuggets head coach Michael Malone for rudely responding to media questions following the Nuggets' elimination from the playoffs, play "To Tell the Truth" and more.
