Result: Loss
#957 ASA PLAY ON Cleveland Guardians +1.5 on the Run Line (-155) over New York Yankees, Tuesday at 7:38 PM ET - Tanner Bibee had a 4.15 ERA at home this season but went 7-4 with a 2.76 ERA on the road this season! He has allowed only 2 earned runs in 8.2 innings in his two post-season outings in these playoffs. Gerrit Cole had a 2.49 ERA on the road this season but went a mediocre 3-2 with a 4.31 ERA in his 9 home starts this season.  He also gave up 7 hits and walked 2 for 9 baserunners in 5 innings in his only home start in this post-season.  We like the value of getting Cleveland at +1.5 runs here at a reasonable price in this one.  The Yankees took Game 1 yesterday by a 5-2 count but the Guardians Alex Cobb had a very rough start and that was the difference in the game.  We expect a much better outing from Bibee here and the final 10 times in the regular season that the Yankees were off a win in which they scored 5 or more runs, they went 3-7 in their next game.  In the post-season this has occurred one time and the Yankees again lost their next game when they lost 4-2 after a 6-5 win over KC.  We look for this trend to continue here but we also like having the added cushion of the +1.5 runs in case the Guardians lose a 1-run game here.  Note that the Yankees 3 wins over the Royals in the ALDS included 2 by just a single run.  With a total of just 7 posted on this game, you can expect a tighter low-scoring game having the +1.5 runs on your side could prove very valuable here.  We are going with the +1.5 runs with the run line in this one!
