The Seattle Mariners claimed the opener of this game set 12-0 but came up short in Game 2 losing 5-4 in extra innings. The two teams are closing out the set this afternoon, and I think we're getting a good price on the visitors in this spot.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Pitching - The Mariners will hand the ball to Felix Hernandez who was as dominant as ever in his season debut. King Felix held the Angels to one run on two hits over seven innings of work, striking out 10 while allowing only one walk. He was 15-6 with a 2.14 ERA last season while going 4-0 behind a 2.22 ERA over six starts against the A's. Oakland will counter with 25 year old Jesse Hahn who is coming off his rookie season where he went 7-4 with a 3.07 ERA. He tossed seven innings against Seattle last year giving up only one unearned run but took the loss in his first start this season giving up three runs on seven hits over six innings against the Rangers.

2. The A's As A Dog - Oakland is not the right team to back if you're looking for an upset. It is 1-4 in their last 5 games as a home underdog and a measly 5-23 in its last 28 games as an underdog overall.

3. X-Factor - Seattle's Nelson Cruz was 3-for-5 in yesterday's 5-4 win and will be looking to make a long lasting impression as he'll bat against Jesse Hahn for the first time in his career.

Selection: This is a play on the Seattle Mariners (10*)
