3 things to know about this game:
• Royals second baseman Whit Merrifield went 0-for-5 on Monday to snap a career-best 19-game hitting streak, which was the longest in the Majors this season. He batted .409 (27-for-66) during the streak.
• Astros right fielder George Springer, who was named American League Player of the Week on Monday, averaged 107.1-mph on his exit velocity during his 16 home runs this season, which is top 10 in the Majors among double-digit home run hitters.
• While striking out eight batters over four innings in his season debut, Paulino threw 41.6 percent of his pitches in two-strike counts. Lance McCullers Jr. is the only Astros starter to log a higher single-game rate this season, with a 41.7-percent mark on May 23.
