You could add a juice reducer here but there isn’t one I absolutely love. This game has a 7.5 total which is always a great sign for this market and both pitchers have better splits for the type of game it will be tonight.
Houston Astros vs. San Francisco Giants Prediction
The Astros have failed to score in the second inning in seven straight games. We are likely to avoid Jose Altuve, Alex Bregman and Yordan Alvarez. Houston will be facing off against Jordan Hicks who holds a 2.52 home ERA and the Houston batters don’t have a hit lifetime against him. I expect him to continue his hot start and have a clean second.
Secondly we have San Francisco who has failed to score in the second inning in six of their last seven games. They get a matchup against Ronel Blanco who has a 2.08 away ERA on the season in over 30 innings of work. Just like the other matchup, nobody on San Francisco has ever gotten a hit against Blanco in limited at bats.
Hicks is better at home, Blanco is better on the road. If you take both teams last seven seven innings then this has hit in 13 of last 14. 7.5 total proves that the books agree with this assessment. I think we have a clean seven to remain hot and drinking the juice here is well worth it. Lets roll!
