Houston at Texas

Texas got a strong performance by Nathan Eovaldi, who pitched seven scoreless innings, and the Rangers had 15 hits while defeating the Astros 5-2 on Saturday. It could have been worse for Houston as the Rangers left 11 men on base and the Astros had their three-game win streak snapped. Andrew Heaney looks to bounce back from a bad outing against Detroit on Monday and he has faced Houston once this year and threw five shutout innings on two hits. Shawn Dubin will make his first start of the season in what could be a bullpen game for the Astros and he has allowed six runs on nine hits in five innings in two appearances in 2023. Houston has lost seven of nine against teams with winning records and Texas is 27-16 at home and is five games in front of the Astros in the AL West. Take the Rangers as a Max Play
