When he batted leadoff in the Astros' 8-1 loss to the Angels in Sunday's season finale, the 27-year-old right fielder became one of three major leaguers to appear in each of his team's regular-season games this year, joining Royals shortstop Alcides Escobar and Orioles second baseman Jonathan Schoop. The seventh player in Astros history to log 162 games in a season, Springer is the first since Carlos Lee in 2007. His 744 plate appearances were the most in the majors and weren't too far off from his total from his first two seasons combined (796).<< [/QUOTE]
