10* Under Indians/Yankees (7:05 ET): The Yankees could not finish off the sweep in Baltimore yesterday as they went down 3-2. They were one strike away from winning, but a wild pitch in the bottom of the ninth allowed the Orioles to tie the game and then it was over in the 10th. The loss leaves the Yankees one-half game back of the Blue Jays and Red Sox for the Wild Card as they’ve now dropped 13 of 19 overall. A favorable six-game homestand begins tonight with a visit from Cleveland, but I have my doubts about a Yankees team that is only averaging 4.3 runs per game this season. Take the Under here.

Cleveland comes in on the heels of a 12-3 win at Minnesota on Wednesday. The Tribe is looking to make it B2B wins for the first time in over two weeks here. But despite what they did at the plate 48 hours ago, the Indians are also not a strong offensive club. They’ve been no hit THREE times in 2021, the most recent one coming less than a week ago. Prior to erupting for 12 runs in their last game, the Indians had scored three or fewer in eight of nine contests. I expect them to revert back to those previous struggles tonight against a familiar face in Corey Kluber.

Kluber, who won two Cy Youngs with Cleveland, has had a bit of a rocky stretch since returning from the injured list. But with a 2.79 ERA at Yankees Stadium this year, it’s only a matter of time before he gets back on track. For the Yankees’ sake, Kluber better be sharp tonight because I’m also expecting a strong outing from Cleveland starter Zach Plesac, who has a 2.50 ERA and 1.056 WHIP his L3 starts. Plesac had been getting a ton of run support before his team was no-hit his last time out. The amount of run support (7+ runs in six straight starts) made little sense given the Indians’ offensive woes and as we saw in the last start, it’s not likely to continue. 10* Under Indians/Yankees
