This game should go over the total. Ragans has been the best pitcher for the Royals but in this spot he has an ERA of 3.56 in night games and he has given up runs in the past to the Yankees, while Rodon’s night ERA is approaching 4.0 with a 1.21 WHIP and he can't be trusted to pitch a flawless game. Both these pitchers should give up a few runs and more from the bullpens. There should be more runs in the second half of the game. Both offenses have shown they can hit in this playoff series. These two clubs have gone over in ten of their last 16 games in New York including game 1 of this series.

Best bet: take the Over the Total.
