Get out your Astros vs Diamondbacks live stream tonight, as it's time for a 3-game series that will either start with a solid pitcher's duel or a blow-out. Yes, there's trouble afoot in the bats of Arizona, who welcome Houston tonight, and the team is hoping that their pitcher can bring some of his World Series magic in tonight.
Houston looks solid with rookie righty Cristian Javier at the mound, who impressed in his first start against the mighty bats of the Dodgers, only giving up 1 run and making it into the 6th. AZ is sending Madison Bumgarner to pitch, and while the playoffs MVP has a solid reputation, his 0-1, 4.09 ERA, 11 IP 2020 isn't that great (but whose 2020 is going like they planned?)

Tomorrow feels like more of the same for both teams: Houston's got the 1-0 (5.40 ERA) Lance McCullers Jr. going up against Arizona's Robbie Ray (whose 0-2 record and 8.64 ERA do not looks good right now). And for Thursday's nationally televised game on Fox? It's a ? filled Zac(k) attack: Astros have Zack Greinke (0-0, 5.00 ERA) vs the Diamondbacks' Zac Gallen (0-0, 2.70 ERA)
