Houston will look to even the series after losing 4-3 in 10 innings when Salvador Perez hit a game-ending single for the Royals on Tuesday night. It was the only run allowed by the Astros bullpen over the final three-plus innings. Spencer Arrighetti will make his Major League debut for Houston, and he has a 2.16 ERA in two starts in Triple A this season with 10 strikeouts in eight innings. The Astros will try to snap Kansas City's five-game win streak as they face Seth Lugo, who is 0-2 with a 9.65 ERA and 2.14 WHIP in two starts against the Astros. Houston is 27-12 on the road following a loss dating to last season. The Royals are 7-3 UNDER this year and the Astros are 8-3 UNDER. Kansas City is 6-0-1 UNDER its past seven home games versus teams with losing road records. Take the Astros to win, and bet this one to stay UNDER as a Max Play.
