Alright, sports fans, it’s time to buckle up because we’re headed deep into the heart of Texas for a Lone Star showdown that’s hotter than a jalapeño popper on a summer day. The Houston Astros, who’ve been stumbling around like a cowboy after a few too many shots of tequila with a 3W-7L record, are saddling up to face the Texas Rangers, who’ve been roping wins like a seasoned wrangler with a 6W-3L record. They’re meeting at the grand ol’ Globe Life Field, with the first pitch set to fly at 08:05PM EST. The Astros are trailing behind like a tumbleweed in the wind, 3.5 games back in the American League conference, while the Rangers are sitting pretty at 0.0 games back. The betting lines are hotter than a Texas chili cook-off, with the over/under set at 10.0, the Astros line at -138, and the Rangers line at 115.
