Texas at Houston

The Texas Rangers have struggled lately, going 1-4 in their last five games, and dropping the first two in this series at Houston. The Rangers seem to be playing a bit tight, and this Houston team is on a 6-1 run, and a win tonight will get them even in the standings. Houston has their best pitcher on the mound in Framber Valdez, who has led his team to a 67-40 mark in 107 starts. The Astros are also 26-11 in his last 37 starts, and they have won his last six starts at home. Texas is just 10-9 in Andrew Heaney's 19 starts this season, but that has been dependent upon runs as opponents average just shy of five runs per game in those starts. It will be tough scoring that much against Valdez. Go with Houston.
