Houston at Cleveland

Fifth straight road contest for Houston, part of a rugged trip at Texas and now Cleveland, a pair of first place teams. Houston's pitching is wearing down, allowing 30 runs the last four games. The Astros go with Brad Peacock, up from Triple-A Fresno, with the team 3-9 in his last 12 starts. Houston has a losing road record and faces an Indians team on a 36-16 run at home. Cleveland is closing in on a division title with a 4.5 game lead over Detroit. Corey Kluber (15-8, 3.09 ERA) takes the hill, winning his seventh consecutive decision Wednesday with 11 strikeouts in an 8-4 rout of Minnesota. The 2014 AL Cy Young Award winner went 5-0 with a 2.43 ERA in six turns in August to earn AL Pitcher of the Month honors. The Indians are 44-20 at home against a team with a losing road record, plus 37-18 when Kluber starts at home. And the Astros are 7-17 in the last 24 meetings, including 3-11 in this park. Play Cleveland.
