Pick
I’m backing the Over here. These are two teams that are crushing right-handed pitching as of late, and I look for more of the same here. Domingo German has been up and down for much of the year while Bobby Miller’s been solid, but the Yankees’ potent lineup will be the toughest test he’s had in his brief major league career. All in all I think this one’s going to be high-scoring, so give me the over.
