<h3>Maddux goes for career win No. 342</h3>

<div class="pre">Houston (56-67) at San Diego (65-57) 4:05 pm EDT</div>

SAN DIEGO (Ticker) - Greg Maddux will look to register his 342ndcareer win as the San Diego Padres hope to avoid a three-gamesweep at the hands of the Houston Astros.


Maddux (8-9, 4.00 ERA) did a marvelous job getting out oftrouble in his last outing, an 8-0 triumph over the ColoradoRockies. The future Hall of Famer pitched 5 2/3 scorelessinnings, allowing eight hits with four strikeouts.

The 41-year-old Maddux has not walked a batter over his last 22innings dating to July 28. The righthander has relinquishedjust 21 walks over 148 2/3 innings in 25 starts this season.

He will be opposed by Matt Albers (3-5, 5.99), who will makejust his fourth start over the last three months. The24-year-old righthander gave up three runs and seven hits over 62/3 innings in a 7-4 victory over the Los Angeles Dodgers onTuesday.


The Astros are looking for their second sweep in their last fourseries after taking all three games against the Chicago Cubs onAugust 6-8.


San Diego, which has lost three of four, has fallen five gamesback of red-hot Arizona (71-53) in the National League West.
