Eusebio Out for the Season

Houston Astro catcher Tony Eusebio will have shoulder surgery next week and be out for the rest of the season.

Eusebio, who set the club record with a 24-game hitting streak that ended Tuesday, separated his right shoulder in Friday’s game against the Atlanta Braves when he went head-over-heels into the Astro dugout trying to catch a pop foul by Atlanta’s Javy Lopez in the eighth inning.

Eusebio was replaced on the roster by minor leaguer Raul Chavez.
