Both teams are .500 when facing left-handed pitching and this matchup features southpaws Chris Sale agaisnt Chris Capuano.


Sale is an elite pitcher. Capuano is washed-up. The price is low enough to back Sale, who is 3-0 with a 1.57 ERA in seven road outings this season.


Sale has dominated the Yankees in his career going 3-0 with a 0.95 ERA and 35 strikeouts in 28 1/3 innings over four starts. The Yankees have scored more than four runs only once in their last 11 games.


Capuano is trying to prolong his major league career that looks finished. The Yankees picked him up in late July and Capuano has not a won a game for them posting a 4.15 ERA in five starts.


The Yankees haven't been strong as a home underdog losing 20 of the past 28 times in that role.
