Milwaukee at Houston

The Houston Astros snatched defeat from victory last night when they allowed the Cardinals to hang a 9-spot in the sixth inning. The Astros were off to a horrible 1-8 start, similar to last year, having gone a respectable 8-9 since. Milwaukee has a .500 record coming into this one, but by no means is this team deserving of comfortable road chalk status with their 4-7 mark on the highway. The Astros are dealing a blow to poor road teams as they are 9-3 in their last 12 vs. a team with a winning percentage of less than .400 on the road. Myers has pitched well as a home dog leading Houston to a 5-0 mark in his last five. Houston wins here.
