After Jake Odorizzi exited after one batter, Astros reliever Kent Emanuel entered in his MLB debut and ended up lasting 8.2 innings, allowing just two runs on five hits.

Fantasy Impact:

It was an incredible, standing ovation-worthy sprint from Emanuel, who was suspended 80 games for performance-enhancing substances last summer. He was recalled on Friday and made a stellar debut on Saturday. He's not fantasy relevant quite yet, but it was a fabulous story nonetheless.
