The Houston Astros have opened a 5.5 game lead on Seattle, but didn't serve their cause well last night as they lost to the Reds 12-5. That is two straight losses in this series, and they will try and avoid the sweep this afternoon. The Reds have something going as they have won three in a row. The Astros have not had a lot of success in Hunter Brown's 26 decisions on the season where they are 13-13. The road has been challenging all season for Houston, as they come into this game with a less than .500 record on the road. The Reds are playing with confidence now. Make the play on Cincinnati.

Houston at Cincinnati

Houston is on a 19-10-1 run UNDER the total. The defense is ninth in fielding percentage while the pitching is fifth in ERA (3.71). Spencer Arrighetti hasn't allowed a run in his last two starts, both on the road, in 13+ innings. Cincinnati's offense is 15th in runs scored, 19th in on-base percentage, and 16th in slugging. Nick Martinez (3.78 ERA) rarely walks anyone (14 walks in 109+ innings) and the bullpen is 14th in ERA and 13th in WHIP. Take Houston/Cincinnati UNDER the total.
