Cincinnati Reds Face Uphill Battle Against Houston Astros with Young Pitcher Chase Petty on Mound
The Cincinnati Reds are currently in a challenging position, with a recent string of losses and their offense struggling. The team will be starting a young pitcher, Chase Petty, who faced significant challenges in his major league debut and will be up against a strong Houston lineup including Pena, Altuve, and Alvarez. Petty's previous performance, in which he gave up nine earned runs in just 2.1 innings, raises concerns about his ability to effectively compete against Houston's formidable batters. As such, it is recommended to consider Houston as the favorable choice to win and cover the run line in the upcoming game.
