Crochet hasn\u2019t allowed a first inning run in 18 of 23 starts this season while posting a 2.08 road ERA. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Astros are bottom five in first inning scoring this season at home failing to do so in 76% of those games with Houston still sitting top 10 in NRFI results even though they\u2019ve played to a YRFI in their last five games. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Play on a <strong>Red Sox vs Astros NRFI<\/strong> to happen today with first pitch slated for 8:10PM ET and <strong>odds listed at -145<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Enjoyed the NRFI Prop Bets?
