4/11 MLB: Houston at San Francisco

[swole]

Fresh off a victory in their last game, Houston turns to righty Taylor Buchholz to keep its momentum going Tuesday on the road at San Francisco.

Houston takes its 5-2 mark to San Francisco to battle the 4-2 Giants today.

The Giants (4-2) opened as 165 favorites and they host an Astros team that has won 5 of their 7 games this season. The total opened at 8.5.

Last time out, at Minute Maid Park against Washington, the Astros as favorites defeated the Nationals 5-4. That game was an as a push against play.

Felipe Alou's troops were at home against the Braves last game and came away with a 6-5 win, a game that went over 8. Oddsmakers had them as favorites.

San Francisco's hitting hasn't been much to write home about, as they are averaging just 7.7 hits per game on the season, ranked #15 in the National League.

Some trends to consider:
Houston is 1-3-2 OU in its last 6 games against San Francisco
Houston is 1-4-0 SU in its last 5 games after scoring 4 to 6 runs
Houston is 4-1-1 OU in its last 6 games
