The Houston Astros were in a must-win situation, as a loss would have left them down 3-0 in the series. They rose to the occasion last night and sometimes it takes just that one win to regain momentum. It was the Rangers' first loss of the post-season as they had been 7-0 prior to last night. Jose Urquidy gets the ball for Houston tonight. He has dominated the Rangers in six career starts, where he is 5-0 with a 2.82 career ERA against them. Andrew Heaney has pitched well vs. Houston, despite just a 4-4 career record as his ERA in the starts is 3.35. I think Houston has some mojo working now, and have a slight edge on the mound. Looks like a close one. Play on Houston, on the runline.
