The Mariners will try to avoid the sweep in the finale of the 3 game series. The Astros won the first two game to extend their overall winning streak to four games. Seattle’s Taijuan Walker pitched well enough to win last night leaving with a 3-1 lead after going 5 1/3 innings allowing 1 run on 4 hits before the bullpen fell apart in the 8th allowing 5 runs. Houston starter Colin McHugh was solid throughout pitching 7 innings allowing 3 runs on 7 hits to pick up the win.
In the final the Astros will go with starter Roberto Hernandez who went 6 strong innings against the Angels in his latest giving up just 3 hits but got tagged for 3 runs in the no decision. The Mariners will look to left hander J.A. Happ to help them salvage a win. He was very good in his outing allowing the Rangers 2 runs on 5 over 7 innings.
The scoring stats show that Seattle holds a 0.57 margin in scoring putting an average of 3.93 runs on the board per game while Houston has scored 3.36. Defensively Houston holds a large edge allowing 3.43 runs per game while the Seattle pitching on the whole has been getting crushed with the 29th ranked runs allowed per game of 5.36.

Free MLB Pick
Seattle starter J.A, Happ has been good in his two starts this season but hasn’t been rewarded with a win pitching a combined 13 1/3 innings allowing 4 runs. He had a good outing against the Astros last season while wearing a Jays’ uniform going 7 innings allowing 1 run on 3 hits, His number are even better against Houston’s current lineup with the team hitting a combined 0.57 against him. The Astros will give Roberto Hernandez the ball and while his stats line isn’t quite as good as Happ’s his WHIP of 1.22 and ERA are nothing to be ashamed of. The overall Seattle lineup has hit .292 against him, but he has one of baseball’s best bullpens statistically to back him up if he gets into trouble.
