It was yet another winner on Thursday as the Boston Celtics and LA Lakers played under the total of 192 points in game 1 of the NBA Finals.
Tonight we select from the late night Major League Baseball contest as the Minnesota Twins visit Oakland to take on the Athletics.
First pitch is scheduled from Oakland at 10PM Eastern Time and you can watch it on the MLB package.
Hitting the mound for the Twins will be Scott Baker and he will oppose Dallas Braden for the Athletics.
With our free pick we will play on the Minnesota Twins and Oakland Athletics to play under the total of 7 ½ runs.
The Minnesota Twins bats have been ice cold as they have produced no more than 1 run in their past three road games with the Seattle Mariners. They now open a three game series in another pitchers park in Oakland.
Dallas Braden has pitched well at home this season as he sits with an ERA of 2.14 and a WHIP of just 0.81 in 6 starts. Braden in his past three starts against Minnesota has allowed no more than 2 earned runs in those outings. The Athletics bullpen has pitched well at home as the unit sits with an ERA of 2.90.
Oakland has a quick turnaround as they flew cross country from Boston yesterday following their 7 game road trip so their offense will be impacted tonight.
Scott Baker is coming off three pretty good starts where he allowed just 6 earned runs. The Twins starter is a perfect 4-0 versus Oakland during his career with an ERA of 3.24 in those 4 starts. He too is backed by a good Twins bullpen and their unit sits with an ERA of 3.08. It goes under tonight.
Bet Minnesota Twins and Oakland Athletics Under 7 1/2 runs.
