This is a 10* play OVER Houston-Detroit

As you might expect, the Astros rolled to an 8-1 victory last night in the series opener here in Detroit. The Tigers appeared overmatched from the jump as starter Boyd gave up three early runs and Houston never trailed en route to its sixth straight victory. Boyd is Detroit's best starter, so you have to figure the Astros are going to continue to score runs here at Comerica Park, today in particular as they are set to face Ryan Carpenter, whose first start did not go well at all. Against the Angels last Thursday, Carpenter conceded six runs and lasted just five innings. Houston has scored 34 runs in just the last three games and scored 10 or more four times in its last 10 games overall. But we should also see the Tigers put more runs on the board Tuesday. Houston's Wade Miley has pitched well this season, but strikeout numbers are low and four previous starts against Detroit have brought zero wins and an ERA of 6.63. He also has an ERA above 4.00 on the road this year. Play OVER Houston-Detroit
