Astros starter Woody Williams got an unexpected jolt when he took the mound at Minute Maid Park on Friday night for the first time since joining the team.
The 40-year-old right-hander, who grew up in Houston and is a longtime Astros fan, signed a two-year, $12.5 million contract in November to be the Astros’ No. 3 starter. He spent the 2006 season in San Diego.
