Prediction and Conclusion

Both teams have an excellent season and will reach the playoffs. Houston has been dominant in the series, winning the first two games by 8-0 and 11-5, and now has won the last five games against Arizona. The Astros will try to keep that winning streak alive with veteran Justin Verlander on the mound, who is 3-5 for the season with a 4.52 ERA, 63 K, 71.2 IP, and 1.31 WHIP. The Diamondbacks will start Ryne Nelson, who is 10-6 for the season with a 4.15 ERA, 121 K, 143 IP, and 1.26 WHIP. The Diamondbacks definitely have a shot in this game, so we go with them to cover the +1.5-run spread.
