This is a 10* play on the Houston Astros.

The Houston Astros have split the first two game in this series versus versus their state rival Texas, and they are a favorite to win the rubber match. Houston appears to have a favorable machup on the mound, with Dallas Keuchel starting opposite Colby Lewis.

Keuchel (1-0, 0.00 ERA) tossed seven scoreless innings in a 2-0 win over Cleveland on Opening Day. He was 2-1 with a 3.45 ERA in four starts versus the Rangers last year, winning his only outing at Texas. Pitching on the road was no problem for the right-hander, as he was 8-4 with a 3.04 ERA in 16 starts on the road.

The Rangers hand the ball to Colby Lewis, who was a winner on Opening Day. He hasn't had much success at home in Texas though, posting a record of 3-9 with a 5.90 ERA at the Ballpark in Arlington last year.

Jose Altuve was the AL batting champ in 2014, and he's hit .400 in his career versus Lewis.

Take HOU.
