Red Sox's Tanner Houck chases first win of season in Seattle

Even before Tanner Houck got called up last September and went 3-0 with an ERA of 0.53 in three starts, he was called a right-handed version of Boston Red Sox teammate Chris Sale. Things haven't gone quite as expected this season for Houck, a former first-round pick. He is scheduled to take the mound Wednesday afternoon in Seattle with the Red Sox tied with the Toronto Blue Jays and New York Yankees for the American League's two wild-card playoff berths.
