CLEVELAND (Interstat) — The Houston Astros and Cleveland Guardians will wrap up a three-game series at Progressive Field on Wednesday afternoon, with both teams looking to build momentum after splitting the first two contests. The Guardians (13-11) evened the series with an 8-5 victory Tuesday afternoon after the Astros (9-15) opened it with a 9-2 win on Monday. Houston will send right-hander Tanner Bibee (0-2) to the mound for the 1:10 p.m. EDT start under cloudy skies with a temperature around 63 degrees. Bibee seeks his first win of the season against a Cleveland lineup that produced eight runs on 11 hits Tuesday. The Astros’ offense, which has struggled for consistency, will try to replicate its breakout performance from Monday night. A key bat for Houston is third baseman Isaac Paredes. He powered Monday’s win, going 3 for 5 with two home runs and two RBIs. However, he was 0 for 4 with a walk in Tuesday’s loss, part of a recent slump aside from that big game. For Cleveland, reliever Matt Festa is a player to watch. He pitched two innings, allowing one earned run, in Monday’s loss to Houston. The Guardians’ bullpen will likely be called upon early if they are to secure a series win. According to National Statistical’s game simulator, the Guardians are projected to win 5-3. Cleveland has been installed as a pregame favorite with a spread of -1.5, and the over/under is set at 8 runs. Following the series, the Guardians head to Toronto for a weekend set, while the Astros return home to host the New York Yankees.
