Houston Astros (30-26) at Milwaukee Brewers (27-28), 7:05 p.m.

(Sports Network) - Right-hander Ben Sheets meets Houston for the second time this season tonight, when the Milwaukee Brewers host the visiting Astros in game two of a three-game series at Miller Park.

Sheets allowed seven hits and four runs in 6 1/3 innings on May 4 in Houston, getting a no-decision in an 8-6 Astros' victory.

He is 10-8 lifetime in 25 starts against Houston, posting a 3.86 earned run average in 156 1/3 innings.

Sheets' last win came May 21 at Pittsburgh, when he scattered 11 hits but allowed just one run over nine innings in Milwaukee's 4-1 defeat of the Pirates.

Veteran Brian Moehler starts for the fifth time in 2008 for Houston.

The 36-year-old right-hander last allowed four hits and two earned runs in six innings against Philadelphia on May 24, earning a 4-3 victory.

He pitched exclusively out of the bullpen with the Astros in 2007, making 42 relief appearances and going 1-4 with a save and a 4.07 earned run average in 59 2/3 innings.

He's faced the Brewers 17 times in his career, including eight starts, and is 3-6 with a 4.21 ERA in 57 2/3 innings.

In Friday's opener of this set, Ryan Braun went 4-for-4 with a home run and two runs batted in as the Brewers cruised past the Astros, 5-1.

Prince Fielder hit a two-run homer and Mike Cameron added a solo shot for the Brewers, winners in four of their last five outings. Manny Parra (3-2) held the Astros to a run on four hits over six innings to pick up the win, striking out six and walking four.

J.R. Towles knocked in the lone run for the Astros, who dropped their third straight game. Lance Berkman and Hunter Pence each had doubles in the loss.

Houston Brandon Backe (4-6) was dealt the defeat after allowing all five Milwaukee runs on six hits in five frames.

Houston swept the Brewers in a three-game set earlier in the season after Milwaukee took 13 of 18 matchups between the teams in 2007.
