The set-up: The Yanks took both games of yesterday's double-header, continuing a trend of beating up on "lesser" competition, after having already swept at Baltimore. New York is the hottest hitting team in baseball and I don't see anything changing on Sunday in the finale. The visitors hand the ball to Domingo German, while the home side counters with Danny Duffy.

The pitchers: German (9-1, 2.60 ERA) is mowing through the competition this year and he's been particularly effective in this position all season, going 5-0 with a 2.60 ERA in all "day" games.

Duffy (3-1, 3.45) has been decent early after struggling to a 8-12, 4.88 ERA record last year.

The pick: Take it for what you will though, but New York is a perfect 9-0 this year already as a road favorite of -125 or higher, while KC is just 5-13 as an underdog in the +125 to +175 range.
