Lance Berkman hit a solo home run and singled once in a 5-3 loss to the Padres on Sunday.
Berkman's solo blast came off starter Greg Maddux in the first inning.
The homer was the seventh this month for Berkman, though a lack of players on base in front of him means he has just 11 RBI during that span.
Expect Berkman to make up for some of his first half struggles with a continued hot streak down the stretch.
Carlos Lee, who left Saturday's game because of a strained left hip, returned to action as a pinch-hitter on Sunday.
Lee pinch-hit in the ninth and popped out against Trevor Hoffman.
He could be back in the lineup when the Astros take on the Nationals tomorrow.
It's fine to leave Lee active in lineups this week.
