Davis Martin (RHP #65) will toss the ball to Hayden Wesneski (RHP #39) under the lights of Daikin Park at 8:10 PM EDT, streamed on MLB TV. The Sox’s staff boasts a 4.14 ERA—just a whisper better than Houston’s 4.61—yet both clubs are stuck at a .24‑ish batting average, proving that the only thing hotter than the Texas night is the collective mediocrity. Chicago is already missing reliever Chris Murphy and catcher Kyle Teel, so the bullpen looks about as comforting as a lukewarm cup of coffee.
The Astros enter as -144 favorites, while the Sox sit at +119 and the run line sits at a tidy 8.5. If you think the right‑handed duel will be a fireworks show, you might be buying tickets to a fire drill. Place your pick or join the banter over on StreakChat.
