Los Angeles has been terrible on the road (4-12), and this is its seventh straight road contest. They come off an 11-4 loss last night to the Astros, part of a 2-10 run. Of those 10 defeats, eight have been by more than one run. Left-hander Jose Suarez (33.75 ERA) gets thrown in to start the first game of this double-header day, taxing a Los Angeles pitching staff that is #27 in the league in team ERA (5.30). Houston is Top 10 in pitching ERA and 11-4 at home. Starter Cristian Javier (2-1, 3.55 ERA) has thrown well, and the Astros have allowed 11 total runs in their last seven home games. The wagering value is on a one-sided win by the home team again. Play Houston on the runline.
