Houston at Los Angeles

What happened last night? The lowly Astros beat the Angels 6-3. Chalk that up to a strange anomaly and don't count on a repeat tonight. The Astros are just 9-16 on the road, even after that win. And when facing right-handed pitchers as they are tonight, Houston is averaging just 3.9 runs per game this season. That loss last night was just the first in LA's last seven home games. Tonight the pitching discrepancy is severe. Houston's Bud Norris owns a 1-3 mark on the road with a 7.71 ERA. The Angels go with Jerome Williams who has put up a 2.58 ERA this season (1.80 in his last three starts). Over the past three seasons, Williams is 10-3 to the run line when facing a losing team. Over that same span, the Astros are 48-110 after back-to-back road games, and 29-87 as an underdog of +150 or greater. Take the Angels on the runline.
