On Thursday the comp play is on the Newyork Yankees. Game 954 at 7:57 eastern. This will be a run line play as I have no interest in laying -200. Historically in World series play Home teams that are down 0-1 are 27-14 in game two. If they are coming off a loss of 5 or more runs they are 7-3.
The Yankees have a nice pitching edge with AJ.Burnett tonight. They have won 14 of his 18 home starts this year and he has a solid 3.38 home era. The Phillies are starting P.Martinez tonight. In his last start he was masterful holding the Dodgers to just 2 hits over 7 strong innings. Tonight he gets a much better line up,against a team he has struggled against. Martinez only has one recent start against this Yankee team a 5+ innings shelling as he allowed 6 runs last year.After this game he will wish he was back at home under a mango tree. The Yankees are 15-5 as home favorites of -175 to -200 while the Phillies are 14-36 long term as an underdog in this range.Last night we took the Phillies tonight. Look for the Yanks to get this one by more than a run. Those looking for the football I have a double perfect power angle in tonight's college football game. Take the Yankees on the run line as the comp play. BOL GC.
