AT 7 EASTERN on Sunday night ESPN Bases we will back Houston to avoid the home sweep. In fact from the database we see that non division road dogs off back to back road dog wins that scored 5 + runs and were off a home win coming into the series are 0-7 since 2004 and lose by 4 runs per game vs an opponent that scored 2 or less runs in a home favored loss if the total is more than 7. The Astros have a pitching advantage with Urquidy over Falter. Houston is 10-1 after losing the first 2 of a series and 43-14 vs leftys, the Phils have dropped 9 of 12 after scoring 5+ runs.
