AAA's INTERLEAGUE TOTAL "ASSASSIN!"
(MLB) Chi Cubs vs. Chi White Sox,
Total: 11.00 | -105.00 Over
Result: Win
This is an 8* TOTAL ASSASSIN on the UNDER between the Chicago Cubs and the Chicago White Sox.

These teams combined for 11 runs in the Cubs 8-3 victory, but we're expecting a bit more of a "duel" on Thursday night in this cross town interleague rivalary game:

Jon Lester: He's 7-6 with a 3.95 ERA. Lester comes in off a gem against St. Louis on Saturday, giving up two runs off three hits to go along with ten K's over eight frames in the victory. Lester is now back on track after allowing just three earned runs over his last 15 innings of work, lowering his ERA to under 4.00 in the process.

Mike Pelfrey: He's 3-7 with a 4.46 ERA. Pelfrey also comes in off a strong outing, giving up one run off two hits while striking out four over six innings in what turned out to be a 7-2 loss to KC on Saturday. Pelfrey has been an innings eater this year and is likely on his way out of Chicago after the season is done. He's been at his best at home with a 3.99 ERA.

The bottom line: The Cubs have seen the total go UNDER the number in 40 of 74 against right-handed starters this year, while the White Sox have seen the total go UNDER the number in 16 of 27 against left-handed starters. Play the UNDER.
