Total: 8.50 | 100.00 Under
Result: Loss
No team in the majors has scored more runs this month than Texas. The Rangers are red-hot scoring 25 runs during the first two games of this series while forcing New York to use up a lot of bullpen innings.
The Rangers' offense should continue to pour on runs facing washed-up journeyman Chris Capuano, making his second start of the season after coming back from a strained quad sustained during spring training. Capuano has a 5.50 ERA in seven career starts at Yankee Stadium. Capuano has had an ERA of at least 4.25 during four of the last five years. He's pitched for five teams since 2010.
Texas starter Yovani Gallardo is past his prime, too. He's 1-5 with a 4.63 ERA in his last six starts and carries a 4.97 road ERA.
Toby Basner is the scheduled home plate umpire. He's been in the majors since 2012 and the over has cashed 66 percent of his career 38 times behind the plate. The forecast is for a slight wind that will be blowing out.
