This is a 10* play on WASHINGTON

There's a lot to digest coming into the first ever World Series Game 7 where two former Cy Young winners will be starting. The road team has won all six games so far, which is really surprising given how good of a home team the Astros are. Even with the three losses to the Nationals, Houston's record at Minute Maid Park is 65-25 this year and they have scored 159 more runs than they have allowed in those 90 games. Only one time, a three-game losing streak to Oakland last month, have the Astros lost more than two in a row at home in 2019. Thus, with everything on the line tonight, we can't see them losing a 4th straight home game. We just can't. While many inside the Washington clubhouse are probably ecstatic over the fact Max Scherzer gets to start Game 7, he is a huge question mark after being scratched from Game 5 because of neck spasms. Those spasms reportedly led to him being unable to even lift his arm. Scherzer probably still pitches well, but won't match Zack Greinke, whose only quality start this postseason was the one time he got to start at home. Going back to the start of the series, the Astros were the biggest WS favorite since 2007. Though it always hasn't been apparent, they do have the better bullpen. We like Houston to win the Fall Classic at home. Play on HOUSTON
