New York Yankees @ Houston Astros: Grand total (< 9.5) /// 1.67
Cleveland played respectably in his second match and my bet won. The total score of my bets is 8-4 in favor of the successful ones. Today I want to play a grand total of less than 9.5 runs in the match between Astros and Yankees. 11 of the last 15 head-to-head meetings have been under 9.5 runs. The Yankees are also 11 of their 15 road games under 9.5 runs. I don't want to get into betting on the winner of the game, as I think New York is the mental favorite here, but the stats tell me that Houston has won 10 of the last 15 head-to-head meetings with the Yankees. All in all, a difficult matchup. Aaron Judge is in great shape. Houston has been on a losing streak of their own pitch in the last few games, but tonight they'll play start of the game with pitcher Javier, who has an unrealistically tough 9-2 record on the season. There is a lot of controversy in this matchup. That's why we'll take the total under 9.5 for this match. This bet makes more logic for me.
