Schule's MLB Sunday Night T-E-R-M-I-N-A-T-O-R ~ Royals@Orioles
(MLB) Kansas City vs. Baltimore, 09/13/2015 4:05 PM, Score: 2 - 8
Total: 8.00 | -105.00 Under
Result: Win
This is a 10* play on KC@BAL to go OVER the total.

We've seen a couple of slugfests in Baltimore in the first two games of this series, but with a pair of big name starters on the mound tonight, we see a low total for tonight's series finale. This looks like a tough spot for both pitchers though, and I expect another high scoring game.

It's been a rough start in Kansas City for Johnny Cueto, who has been lit up in his last four starts. Cueto (9-11, 3.24 ERA) has surrendered 22 runs on 37 hits over 20 innings in four consecutive losses. Three of those losses came at home in Kansas City, where he is 2-4 with a 4.50 ERA this season. His next start comes on the road in Baltimore, and the Orioles tagged him for six runs on eight hits in five innings in a home loss at the end of August.

The Orioles hand the ball to Wei Yin Chen, who has been hit hard in past meetings with Kansas City. Chen (8-7, 3.48 ERA) has allowed 10 runs on 18 hits over 9 2/3 innings in back to back losses. He's seen plenty of Kansas City in recent seasons, and the Royals are hitting .314 against him over a combined 188 at bats.

The Orioles have gone over the total in nine of their last 10 versus a right-handed starter.

Take OVER.
