Take #975/976 Take Under 8.5 Runs. Washington Nationals vs New York Yankees
(MLB) Washington vs. NY Yankees,
Total: 8.50 | -105.00 Under
Result: Loss
Luis Severino (2-8, 7.98 ERA), who is enduring the worst stretch of his eight-year career, starts for the Yankees. Since pitching six innings against Texas on June, the right-hander is 1-6 with an 11.08 ERA over eight outings (seven starts), so definitely kind of scary to take the under here, but we think he bounces back for his struggling team today. MacKenzie Gore (6-9, 4.38) goes for the Nationals on the heels of his best outing of the season. Last Wednesday, the left-hander held Boston to one hit with seven strikeouts in 6 1/3 scoreless innings of work in a 6-2 win. Gore is facing the Yankees for the first time. He is 0-1 with a 2.27 ERA in seven career appearances (six starts) against interleague opponents. We think Gore continues to pitch well and Severino bounces back. Both of these teams have trended under this season and we will ride the trend here.
