Below is a free MLB play with analysis for Sunday afternoon:

ASTROS at PADRES (Under 7, -110) – 4:05 pm ET #911-912

Not an official play, but I would rate the Under as a light lean this afternoon.

The Astros and Padres have had a pair of pitcher's duels the last two nights. They'll wrap up their series on Sunday afternoon in San Diego. Brett Myers gets the start for Houston. He's 5-6 with a 3.61 ERA in 16 starts this season. Myers faced the Padres last year giving up three runs and six hits in 6.7 innings of work. Jerry Hairston Jr. (0-6), Matt Stairs (1-4), Nick Hundley (0-3), and Chase Headley (0-2) have had limited success against Myers. San Diego has scored just seven runs in three games against Houston in this series. They were without Adrian Gonzalez on Saturday due to a stiff neck, and his status for Sunday is questionable.

Houston is looking to get on the board for the first time in three games after being shut out Friday and Saturday. They'll face San Diego’s Wade LeBlanc who is 4-6 with a 3.25 ERA. At home, the lefty is 2-4 with a 2.48 ERA in nine games. Only Jason Michaels has faced LeBlanc and he drew two walks off of him. Houston has gone Under in 11 of their 18 games against left-handed starters hitting .250 against them. The Astros are hitting .231 in the daytime and just .232 on the road. This game has all the makings of a low-scoring, pitcher’s duel between the Astros and Padres this afternoon.
