Minute Maid ParkHouston

Under 0.5 (1st Inn)-110

Taking the NFRI here going against what’s expected. Both teams have been solid cashing YRFI tickets so just know that before you pull the trigger. Feels like a go against the grain game.

J.Montgomery o3.5 Ks-115

Great odds on PB here. Also don’t mind an alternate line in him to get 4.5. Playing it safe here.
