Late Night MLB *NIGHTCRAWLER*
(MLB) Houston vs. Oakland,
Money Line: -108.00 Oakland (Home)
Result: Loss
Play: Oakland Athletics
Rating: 8/10*

Huge advantage on the mound here for Oakland Athletics who hand the ball to their ace Sonny Gray (2-2, 4.44 ERA). Gray is 2-0 with a 3.30 ERA in five home starts on the season and 4-2 with one complete game and a 2.53 ERA in eight career starts against Houston. The Astros hand the ball to 21 year old Francis Martes (1-0, 5.19 ERA) who will make his second start and third appearance in the major-leagues.

Oakland was coming off a four-game sweep of the Yankees but dropped a 4-1 decision to Houston in Monday's series opener. I like the A's to bounce back tonight.
