Rating: 10/10*
The Houston Asros are going for the sweep of this three-game series at Citizens Bank Park Wednesday evening. They're 22-5 in their last 27 interleague road games and 7-0 in their last seven games vs. a team with a winning % below .400. The Astros are an impressive 37-12 on the road overall this season while the Philadelphia Phillies are just 18-28 at home.
Tonight Mike Fiers (7-4, 3.59 ERA) will take the ball for Houston. He's 0-2 with a 12.15 ERA vs. Philadelphia, having given up 11 runs (nine earned) in 6 2/3 innings, but this looks like a good time to improve those numbers. Fiers is 2-0 with a 1.93 ERA in his last two starts, and over his past 10 starts dating back to May 30, Fiers is 6-2 with a 2.36 ERA.
The Phillies turn to Aaron Nola (7-6, 3.38 ERA) who is 4-1 with a 1.70 ERA through his last six outings. The thing is though, he's not faced the Astros in any of those games. Note that Houston leads the majors in batting average, home runs, runs and several other offensive categories this season.
The Astros are 14-5 as a favorite closing at less than -120 this season. Do not be afraid to back the Astros with a BIG BET at this great price.
