The Astros have won four straight and six of eight after sweeping the Twins with a 6-3 triumph Thursday night at home. Houston is 42-18 at Minute Maid Park this season and have Lance McCullers Jr. on the hill. He's 1-1 with a 2.45 ERA over 11 innings in his two starts, walking seven and striking out 11. As he gets more up to speed, his control should improve as well. Meanwhile, Baltimore is seven games under .500 on the road on the year and they send Kyle Bradish to the hill. He's winless in his last 11 starts, stands 1-5 with a 6.25 ERA and a 1.65 WHIP on the season. He owns a 6.18 ERA over 27.2 innings on the road this year, which doesn't bode well. Give the upper hand to Houston as Baltimore gets brought back to earth a bit here.
