The Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim and the Houston Astros are set for a rubber match on Wednesday after the first two games of the series resulted in a 1-1 deadlock. After coming up short in the series opener, the Astros got the job done in Game 2 as Jeremy Pena delivered the walk-off hit in the 10th inning. Kyle also homered twice while Josh Harder closed the show with some clutch pitching in the 9th and 10th inning. The Astros improved their record to 22-27, moving them within five games of AL East leader Seattle Mariners (27-22). The Angels dropped below .500 on the road with 13-14 slate and 19-30 overall, good for No.5 in the AL West. However, they have won four of their last six games.
