Seattle is a road favorite with King Felix Hernandez on the hill, but they are not a good road team at 3-7. Even King Felix isn't getting it done, with the team 1-3 in his four starts. His ERA is better at home than on the road, which was the case last year, and the last three years he is just 18-19 away from home. That's because this Seattle offense is terrible at 26th in runs scored, 28th in on-base percentage and ranked 29th in slugging and batting average. The Mariners are 0-5 in their last five road games, 1-9 in Hernandez's last ten starts and 5-13 in Hernandez's last 18 starts during game 1 of a series. Houston has a better offense at 15th in runs score and 12th in slugging. Starter Brad Peacock has fanned 15 in 13+ innings while allowing only 11 hits. Houston is 7-1 in the last eight meetings with Seattle and the Mariners are 1-4 in the last five meetings in Houston. Play the Astros.
