Houston will turn to Hunter Brown as it looks to end a two-game skid and he has allowed only five earned runs his past six starts in 37 innings pitched, including no runs his past two outings against Kansas City and Cincinnati. Oakland batters are just 12-for-59 with two homers against him and Brown has a 2.54 ERA and a .215 opponent batting average in night games this season. The Astros have won five of his past six home starts and five of six when he is a home favorite of at least -201. The Athletics have lost five straight when Joey Estes starts with five days rest and they are 1-8 his past nine road starts. Houston has stayed UNDER four straight when Hunter starts following a loss and the Astros are 11-1 UNDER when he is priced as chalk of more than -190. Houston is 10-2 UNDER when Brown goes up against a team with a losing record. Take the Astros and the UNDER.
