Miami at Houston

Miami plays its second game of a long road trek. The Marlins are 6-22 in interleague games, including 5-16 in interleague road contests. Miami starter Braxton Garrett (10.80 ERA) struggled badly in his first start and in the last two years he's had ERAs of 5.03 and 5.87. The Marlins are also 16-35 in interleague road games against winning teams and 16-36 on the road versus a lefty starter. They face Houston southpaw Framber Valdez (2.61 ERA) with the team winning his last six starts. The Astros are 51-19 after four or more straight home games, so back the first place team at home. Play Houston.
