Texas Rangers (25-29) and Houston Astros (24-32) will meet for the third time in this four-game series on Wednesday night. The Rangers recovered from their Game 1 defeat to punish the Astros 10-7 on Tuesday night at Globe Life Field. They were off to a quick start, delivering an 8-run first inning to ensure the Astros couldn’t come back into this contest. Bookmakers are backing them to win the tiebreaker tonight at -165 odds.

Houston Astros, on the other hand, will blame their slow start for the embarrassing defeat last night. Poor location and defense by their starter, Jason Alexander (1-1), saw them lose the first inning by eight runs. The Astros tried to pull off a comeback in the fourth, but the hosts had already done the damage early in the game. Even more painful for the Astros is that this defeat snapped their four-game winning streak while ending the hosts’ four-game slide.

Our Texas Rangers vs Houston Astros Prediction

We could see another big scoreboard with both starting pitchers still trying to find their rhythm this season. The Rangers will start Jacob deGrom, who carries a 3-4 record and a 3.86 ERA into this contest. His statistics look solid, although he hasn’t been consistent. Houston will counter deGrom by sending Mike Barrows to the mound. Burrows is the unreliable pitcher of the two starters, coming into this game with a 2-6 record and a 5.75 ERA. The righty has recently allowed a lot of traffic on bases, highlighted by his 8.49 ERA in the last two matches. Overall, Texas should win this contest, although Houston should also cross the plate several times.

Our prediction for Texas Rangers vs Houston Astros: Over 7.5 runs.

Prediction:
