Top Rated 10* AL *GAME OF THE MONTH*
(MLB) NY Yankees vs. Kansas City,
Money Line: -126.00 Kansas City (Home)
Result: Loss
Play: Kansas City Royals
Rating: 10*

The New York Yankees picked up a 5-4 win in extra innings last night. The red hot Royals are still 13-3 in their past 16 games and 5-0 in their past five following a loss, and I like the Monarch to bounce back with a win tonight.

Ian Kennedy (9-9, 3.57 ERA) takes the ball for Kansas City. He's been lights out lately, posting a 3-0 record while allowing just five runs and fanning 36 batters in his last six starts.

The Bronx Bombers turn to 24 year old rookie Luis Cessa (4-0, 4.11 ERA) who will make his mere third start in the big leagues. He conceded three runs on five hits with a pair of homers in six innings against Baltimore his last time out. He's yielded a total of seven homers in 30 2/3 innings of work this season.

The umpire advantage goes to Kansas City with the home team 6-1 in Jeff Kellogg's last seven games behind home plate and the Royals are 4-1 in their last with games with Kellogg while the Yankees are 0-5 in their last five. All in all, this is a great price on the superior team and I'm putting in a BIG BET!
