Game Preview
The Houston Astros will host the Seattle Mariners at Minute Maid Park for the 2nd encounter of their three-game series. The series has started in an unexpected manner as the Mariners managed to upset the Astros with a 7-4 win. Houston has been steadily rising in the American League West Division and they are currently sitting on a 35-20 record, one of the bests in the whole league.
On the other hand, while the Seattle Mariners are on a decent 25-30 record, a lot of experts were expecting them to pull off a better season start. Ty France has been the ray of light keeping the Mariners’ hope alive as he’s been the best hitter for them this season. France is hitting .326 with eight home runs and 37 runs batted in.
The Houston Astros will be sending out Justin Verlander as their starting pitcher for today’s game, who has been considered the best pitcher in the season so far. Right now he is sitting on a 6-2 record with a 2.23 ERA and a 0.80 WHIP over 64 innings pitched. This is Verlander’s 11th start this season and he was last seen in Wednesday’s game against the A’s, where he gave up 3 runs on 2 hits and 2 walks over 7 innings.
Chris Flexen will be the one trying to contain the Astros’ offense as he’ll be the starting pitcher for the Mariners, making this his 11th start of the season. The right-handed pitcher comes into this match with a 2-6 record, while holding a 4.55 ERA and a 1.41 WHIP over 55 innings pitched.
While the Seattle Mariners have a strong offense of their own, it’s hard to say that they’re much better than the Astros’ batters. Paired with a strong deck presence, the Astros will send out their best pitcher for today’s game, reducing the chances of a Mariner’s win happening.
