Update
The excitement continues in the MLB American League Championship Series, and after several surprises, we have the Texas Rangers leading the series 2-1 against the Houston Astros.
We say surprise, as the Astros are always a really big force when it comes to playing at home, and they lost the first two games at home. However, they then bounced back and stayed alive after winning the first one at Globe Life Field.
Now, both Astros and Rangers will have to leave it all in every inning, pitch, and at-bat to take the win and advance to the highly anticipated 2023 World Series.

Why Bet on the Rangers?
The Texas Rangers started this Championship Series on the right foot, as they got two excellent away wins against the Astros.
In the first game, as we mentioned then, it was a pitching duel finally won by Jordan Montgomery, who, in 6.1 innings pitched, allowed only 5 hits and no runs. Finally, this game ended with a score of 2-0 in favor of Texas.
Then, in the second game, the Rangers annihilated Framber Valdez by scoring 5 runs in 3 innings to take the lead. Although Houston reacted, this was not enough, and they lost 5-4.
Finally, Texas fell in their first home game by 5-8. Now, for this game, they will have left-handed Andrew Heaney as the starting pitcher.
Why Bet on the Astros?
On the other hand, the Houston Astros are in a complicated situation since, in addition to being down 1-2 in the series, they will have to manage to win at least one of the two remaining games at the Rangers’ home to be able to return home and turn the series around.
The Astros suffered an offensive slump in the first two games of the series, as neither Jose Altuve, Yordan Alvarez, nor Kyle Tucker could lead the team to victory at home. However, in the series’ third game, the Astros relied on Altuve’s HR, Alvarez’s 2 RBI, and Tucker’s patience to take a convincing 8-5 victory.
Houston is confident that Jose Urquidy can perform well enough to hold off the dangerous Texas offense and even the series at 2-2.
Final Betting Analysis: Rangers vs. Astros
As we have observed, the Rangers have managed to field a great offense, and, in addition, their pitching has risen to the occasion, preventing the Astros’ dangerous bats from doing any damage.
At MyBookie.ag, we can see that there is a Moneyline that favors the Rangers at -120, while the Astros start at -101.
While Texas has everything to take this win home, we expect the Astros to use their most recent victory to show their chests and their champion’s chest. As a result, our betting pick is a win for the Houston Astros.
Look for a win on the Astros’ Moneyline. For example, if you put $100 on the Astros at -101, you’ll see a $99.01 success with a total payout of $199.01.
