New York Yankees vs. Texas Rangers Prediction

I’m on the under in this one. I just think this ends up being another low-scoring Globe Life under as we’ve seen a lot of games at this ballpark be this season and over the years. This is a great starting pitching matchup and in the end, I think we get another low-scoring duel. Give me the under here.
