Rickenbach MLB *10* OVER 7.5 runs -103 in Kansas City vs Houston @ 8:05 ET - This total has dropped from an 8 to a 7.5 and I see great value with the over in this one. It should be a cool but pleasant evening in Kansas City and I expect both pitchers to struggle some here. The Astros Collin McHugh certainly has impressive full season numbers. However, he only recorded 1 strikeout in his first start against the Royals in this series. That means, of course, that Kansas City is not having a problem making contact with is offerings and I expect them to do more damage here in their second shot against him tonight. After being held to two runs in the Game 1 loss, the Royals have responded by taking 2 of the next 3 and scoring 16 runs in the process. Look for their offense to remain hot tonight. The issue for KC here is going to be their own pitching. Johnny Cueto truly has struggled in Royals uniform. Though he pitched "okay" against the Astros in the first match-up, he still is involved in a long-term stretch that has seen him allow 41 earned runs in his last 57 and 1/3 innings. That equates to a 6.44 ERA and I certainly expect him to struggle again here. The Astros have scored at least 4 runs in each game in this series and I look for them to get at least that again tonight. With the Royals also hot at the plate, the result should be an easy over. Play OVER 7.5 runs in Kansas City as a *10* Top Play Wednesday.
