 Astros games began to be televised this same year on CSN Houston, the team's new regional sports network partnership with the NBA's Houston Rockets.After CSN Houston filed for bankruptcy in 2014, Ashby, along with other prominent CSN Houston on-air staff, moved to the newly formed regional sports network Root Sports Southwest, where he served as the color commentator and occasionally play-by-play announcer for the Houston Astros, working alongside Bill Brown and Geoff Blum.Following the news of Bill Brown's decision to retire after the 2016 season, the Astros decided to part ways with Ashby.
