PADRES at ASTROS (-115) – 2:05 pm ET #960

Not an official play, but I would rate Houston as a light lean today.

Houston picked up their fifth win of the season on Saturday after beating San Diego and Mat Latos. Brett Myers has a chance to end their homestand with another victory on Sunday afternoon. Myers is 1-0 with a 1.77 ERA in three starts for Houston. He's coming off a game where he gave up one run and eight hits in seven innings pitched against the Cubs. Myers is 2-0 with a 2.35 ERA in five career starts against San Diego. Last year, he gave up two runs and four hits in six innings in a 3-2 San Diego win on the road. Brad Hawpe (2-13), Chase Headley (1-4), Jason Bartlett (0-3), Nick Hundley (0-3) and Orlando Hudson (0-1) all struggle with Myers. As a team, San Diego is hitting around .210 with that average actually lower on the road. The Padres have not put up more then 4 runs in a game since April 10th.

Clayton Richard has been a pitcher who has struggled on the road in his career. Richard has an ERA near 5.00 in 35 starts away from home. Opponents are hitting him at a .308 average when he's not pitching in his home ballpark. The lefty gave up 3 runs and 5 hits in six innings of work in his lone road start this season. Richard has never faced the Astros in his career with only two batters having seen him. Houston is hitting right around .300 at home and over .300 in their two games against left-handed starters this season. Houston's lineup should be successful once again on Sunday as they earn a solid home win over Richard and the Padres.
