One of the best teams in baseball comes to town for a three-game series starting tonight. The Orioles, faced with more internal conflict than usual recently, will be pressed to keep the focus on the field against another very strong opponent.
Until now, the only other time the Orioles played the Astros this year was a three-game series in early June in Houston. The Orioles lost two of three. But they were only outscored by two runs in that series, scoring seven while allowing nine.
The Houston roster is stacked from top to bottom.
