Yankees vs Athletics Prediction

I’m on the Yankees here. I just don’t trust the Athletics to be able to match what the Yankees bring to the table offensively, and Mitch Spence hasn’t been anything to write home about. Clarke Schmidt has been a decent enough option for the Yankees, and the Yankees beat up on the A’s for the most part in the first series between these two this season. Give me New York in this one.
