Houston Adds Place At Tonight

Baseball Betting Lines

Laynce Nix went 4-for-4 with a home run for the Nationals, but left the game with an Achilles injury and may not be able to play tonight. Washington fell a game under .500 at 40-41.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - The Texas Rangers try to continue their mastery of the Houston Astros this evening when the Lone Star State rivals resume a three- game set at Minute Maid Park. The Rangers have won four straight Silver Boot trophies, awarded annually to the victor in the interleague matchup between the two clubs each year. It hasn't been much of a rivalry, though, lately, as Texas took two of three from the Astros earlier in the year and has won the season series in each of the last two years by a 5-1 margin, while compiling a 13-3 mark against their in- state rivals since the start of the 2009 campaign.

 

C.J. Wilson (8-3) worked seven strong innings to earn the win, giving up a pair of runs on seven hits while fanning three and walking two. In addition to his work on the mound, Wilson also ripped a triple.

 

Jordan Lyles (0-3) worked six innings in defeat for Houston, giving up five runs on 10 hits.

 

"It just didn't fall my way tonight," Lyles said. "I don't know what the ball- strike ratio was tonight, but it couldn't have been good."

 

Lewis has faced the Astros six times (three starts) and is 1-1 with a 1.78 ERA.

 

(Sportsbook Betting Lines) - When the Phillies signed Cliff Lee in the offseason, they envisioned him being part of a rotation of four aces that would carry them into October. After Lee did his part in Tuesday's opener of this highly-anticipated set with the Boston Red Sox, Philadelphia turns to its wild card tonight in Vance Worley.

 

Worley faced Seattle on that day and hurled five innings of one-run ball in a no-decision. He then toed the rubber against the Athletics on Friday and carried a no-hitter into the sixth inning. The 23-year-old righty ended up scattering a hit and four walks over six scoreless frames, but got a no- decision in his team's 1-0 walk-off victory.

 

Worley is 2-1 with a 2.83 earned run average in eight games, including six starts, and is 2-0 with a 1.57 ERA in four starts at home this season. He faces Boston for the first time.

 

"Staying out of the heart of the (strike) zone. Using my breaking ball more. That's it. Gotten lucky quite a bit," said Lee when he was asked to what he can attribute this run of success. "We played a complete game today and in my last few starts. That's the key to winning. We've been doing that for a while. That's why we're in first place."
