The Cleveland Indians have won four straight but are still finding themselves bottom of the AL Central with slim to no chances of reaching the post-season. The New York Yankees have suffered five straight defeats and have lost out on the AL East top spot to the surging Blue Jays. I like the Bronx Bombers to pick up a valuable "W" tonight.

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Pitching - The Tribe hand the ball to Trevor Bauer (9-8, 4.06 ERA) who conceded four runs on seven hits and three walks with three homers in his most recent start. The 24 year old right-hander is 4-5 with a 5.60 ERA home at Progressive Field for the year and he's 1-2 with a 3.78 ERA in three career starts versus New York who will counter with Nathan Eovaldi (11-2, 4.15 ERA). He's 6-0 with a 2.87 ERA in his last nine outings and held the mighty Blue Jays to just one run on five hits in 6 1/3 innings his last start.

2. Home Woes - The Indians have lost four of their last five as a home underdog and they're just 24-33 home at Cleveland for the year. The Yankees have won each of Eovaldi's last five road starts.

3. X-Factor - The Yankees are 8-2 in Eovaldi's last 10 starts as a favorite of -110 to -150.

Selection: This is a play on the New York Yankees (10*)
