The Philadelphia Phillies and Houston Astros meet for Game 6 of the 2022 World Series Saturday at Minute Maid Park. First pitch is slated for 8:03 p.m. ET (FOX). Let's analyze Tipico Sportsbook's lines around the Phillies vs. Astros odds'with'MLB picks and predictions.
Series: Houston leads 3-2; the Astros won the regular-season series 2-1
NL Wild Card Philadelphia lost some momentum with its 3-2 loss in a cliffhanger of a Game 5 Thursday, and with being no-hit by 4 Houston hurlers Wednesday. However, the Phillies have surprised onlookers with more than a couple of resilient bounce-backs in these playoffs. Can they regain momentum once again in a situation where nothing else will do?
The AL champion Astros won 106 games in the regular season, so it figures they know a thing or 2 about holding onto momentum in a series, in a week, etc. In this series, hope for hanging on hinges on Houston’s pitching, which has thus far held the Phillies to a .613 OPS.
