Los Angeles looks to bounce back from an 8-2 loss to the Astros on Thursday when they couldn't solve Cristian Javier, who struck out nine in five shutout innings for Houston, which still has lost nine of its past 11 games. The Astros have several players missing due to injuries or illness, especially on the pitching staff. The Angels have won seven of the past nine meetings, and the Astros have lost their last five versus left-handed starters. Andrew Heaney has recovered from a bad outing his first start of the year, and he has allowed only two runs on five hits in 11 1/3 innings his last two starts as the Angels won both. Los Angeles hitters have done relatively well against Zack Greinke with a combined .262 batting average in 165 at-bats. Play the Angels on the runline.
