#919/920 ASA TOP PLAY ON Under 7 Runs – Houston Astros vs LA Angels, Wednesday at 9:35 PM ET - Yesterday these 2 scored 11 runs with Houston winning 6-5 but the 2 teams combined for only 10 hits which normally would equate to around 5 runs. Nearly half of the runs scored yesterday (5) came in the final 3 innings and only 6 of the 11 runs were actually earned runs. Tonight we anticipate a very low scoring game with 2 outstanding starters on the mound. Ohtani goes for the Angels and he’s been absolutely unhittable as of late. He’s allowed just 2 ER’s in his last 34 innings and he’s allowed a total of 18 baserunners during that stretch! He hasn’t faced LA yet this season but his historical numbers are very good allowing a batting average of .188 lifetime vs current Angel hitters. Houston goes with Javier tonight and he faced LA on July 1st and allowed a total of 1 baserunner in 7 innings pitched. Opponents are hitting just .176 vs Javier this season and he’s facing an LA lineup that has been terrible as of late with a batting average of .177 over their last 10 games. The LA offense has put up more than 4 runs only twice in their last 15 games. Both starters are big strikeout pitchers with each averaging over 12 K’s per 9 innings. If you combine their stats on the season, Ohtani & Javier are averaging 25 K’s per 9 innings and just 5 walks. This one should be low scoring.
