Yanks / Toronto looks like red meat!!
Two ways to play it:
1. These teams have played each other 8 times this year. The under is 7-1!
2. Toronto looks like a better team tonight for the straight-up win. They get to stay at home while Yanks travel after expending alot of energy yesterday on the Royals. Meanwhile, Jays cruised at home with McGowan giving up only 1 run. Jays home record is is 34-20 vs Yanks road record of 24-29. Check out the last three games for the two pitchers:

Litsch has the advantage, especially being on his home turf. Plus, Toronto is hitting lefthanders at .291 on the season. You already know that the Yanks are going to be ludicrously overpriced. Nail the dog!
I'm playing this game both ways.
