The Marlins eked out a 5-4 win over the Cardinals last night to improve to 20-5 in one-run games this season. However, with Adam Wainwright getting the ball for the Cardinals today, the Marlins may be able to create some separation.
There was a slugfest in Texas as the Astros outlasted the Rangers, 12-11. It was a great game for hitting props as the teams combined for seven home runs. Kyle Tucker had a monster game and just missed the cycle by a triple. Back home against the Rockies today, Tucker is in another favorable spot.
In San Diego, Mike Trout likely will be out tonight as the Angels look to even up the series against the Padres. However, stars will still be aplenty, most notably Shohei Ohtani, who 9;ll be on the mound for the Angels today.
Juan Soto believes that Ohtani will have a hard time against this Padres lineup, but Ohtani may have other ideas.
