The Houston Astros continue a monumental series against the Tampa Bay Rays on Wednesday evening at Tropicana Field.
Riding a seven-game winning streak, they will look to keep the positive momentum going against thein their series finale. This has been a huge bounceback by the Astros, who lost two out of three to the Rays last week and have now, at a minimum, returned the favor.
Of course, they have to handle business before looking ahead. Taking the mound for the Astros tonight is Ronel Blanco. He will be opposed by Zack Littell in a rematch from August 3rd. It will be interesting to see if the Astros lineup can figure Littell out this time around. He threw 5.2 innings last time, giving up only one run on four hits and one walk.
For Wednesday’s matchup, oddsmakers believe that Houston holds the edge once again. They have been installed as favorites with a moneyline of -123. The Rays are +104 underdogs with an over/under set at eight runs.
