Boston Red Sox @ Houston Astros

Houston has a chance to punch their way back to the World Series on Friday at home. All signs are pointing to Nathan Eovaldi taking the mound for the Red Sox, after pitching well and getting the win in Game 2. The Red Sox magic seems to be wearing off though, as the Astros have now won two straight games in convincing fashion to take back the lead in the series. The Houston bats have come alive after it was Boston putting up all the runs through the first couple games of the ALCS, and Eovaldi will have to silence them just a couple of days after throwing 24 pitches in relief. The Astros have yet to name a starter and all indications are that if Luis Garcia is over his leg injury that cut his last appearance short, he will get the call. The Astros are rolling right now and seem to be finding their groove at exactly the right time. Boston has been quick to hook their starters this postseason, and manager Alex Cora has stated that all hands will be on deck including Game 7 starter Eduardo Rodriguez. Like the Braves in the NLCS, the Astros are firing on all cylinders right now, so I’m sticking with Houston to win the game. My best bet from the game will be the over though, as the two teams have gone over the total in every game of the series so far.
