On Friday, the AL West champion Houston Astros host the NL Central champion Chicago White Sox continue their American League Division Series with Game 2 in Houston. In the opener, the Astros prevailed by a score of 6-1 to take a 1-0 lead in the best-of-five series. That means the White Sox, if they're to advance to the ALCS, must win three of the next four.

How to watch

Date: Friday, Oct. 8 | Time: 2:07 p.m. ET
Location: Minute Maid Park (Houston, Texas)
TV: MLB Network | Stream: fuboTV (Try for free)
Odds: HOU -121; CHW +110; O/U: 7.5 (via Caesars Sportsbook)
Starting pitchers: Lucas Giolito (CHW) vs. Framber Valdez (HOU)

Preview

Valdez in 2021 pitched to a 3.14 ERA/137 ERA+ with a K/BB ratio of 2.16 in 134 2/3 innings. He's a left-hander, and it's notable that the right-heavy Sox lineup ranked a strong third in the AL this season in OPS vs. lefties. Across the way, Giolito this season logged a 3.53 ERA/123 ERA+ with 3.87 K/BB ratio in 178 2/3 innings. 

The Astros are trying to advance as far as the ALCS for the fifth straight year, and at the same time manager DustyBaker is trying to add a World Series ring to his impressive managerial career. For the White Sox, La Russa is trying to justify ownership's decision to bring him in to replace Rick Renteria. Only a deep playoff run can accomplish that, which means a win in Game 2 is most definitely in order. 

Counting the regular season, the Astros are now 6-2 against the White Sox in 2021. 

Prediction

Those righty bats get to Valdez early, and the White Sox hang on to even the series.

Pick: White Sox 5, Astros 3
