Bregman returned to Houston for the first time since signing with the Red Sox last offseason. The Astros won 7-6.

Carlos Correa and Alex Bregman were back at Daikin Park on Monday -- Correa making his triumphant return after a recent blockbuster trade that brought him back to Houston from Minnesota, and Bregman for the first time as a visitor.

Starting opposite of the home team was dominant lefty hurler Garrett Crochet (2.24 ERA, 183 SO) and his MLB leading 13-4 record. With the baseball equivalent of the Avengers coming back together (save for George Springer and Marwin González) for one more adventure, what kind of fireworks were in store for the fans at first pitch? Astros, Assemble!
