Heyward went 1-for-3 with a walk and a two-run homer in Thursday's 6-3 win over the A's.
Heyward opened the scoring in the second inning with a two-run shot off Mitch Spence, his first homer in 12 games with the Astros and his seventh of the season. The 35-year-old Heyward has gone just 3-for-21 (.143) since joining Houston while primarily coming off the bench, a role that'll likely continue with Kyle Tucker returning to the outfield Friday. Overall, Heyward's slashing .201/.282./387 with 32 RBI, 29 runs scored and four steals across 220 plate appearances between the Astros and Dodgers this year.
