ASTROS NOTES: Berkman starts at DH in AL park | Chron.com - Houston ChronicleLance Berkman, who missed Sunday's contest with flu-like symptoms, was back in the starting lineup Monday night as the designated hitter. "I feel good," he said. "I'm much better than I felt yesterday. I can tell you that.
"Achy, you just feel miserable. (Now) I feel good. I feel strong."
Because of how Berkman felt Sunday, he got the DH role Monday.
He'll likely play the field over the next five interleague games as manager Phil Garner has Craig Biggio and Carlos Lee share the DH role.
