Dubon went 1-for-3 with a two-run homer in Friday's victory over the Tigers.
Dubon popped a 371-foot blast of Tarik Skubal in the sixth inning for his third homer of the season. The Houston utility man drew the start at first base -- his third this season -- after the Astros released Jose Abreu earlier in the day. Jon Singleton will likely see most of the action at first base, but the move does give Dubon another path to playing time. The 29-year-old sports a .301/.327/.404 slash line in 165 plate appearances with 21 runs scored and 23 RBI.
