Cristian Javier Exits Start Early Due to Illness After Returning from Tommy John Surgery

Houston Astros starter Cristian Javier left Sunday's game against the Baltimore Orioles after just three innings due to an illness, allowing three hits and a run with two strikeouts before being replaced by Shawn Dubin. This was Javier's second start since returning from Tommy John surgery, which had sidelined him for 14 months. In his season debut on Monday, he yielded two runs and three hits over five innings in a win against Boston.
