MLB:
Giants ML -130
Giants RL -1.5 +165
Giants are #2 in the majors, only behind the Marlins, vs lefties in batting average. Giants are hitting .314 vs. lefties this year.
Pirates starter LH Mark Redman is 0-3 with a 7.56 ERA in 3 starts vs. the Giants.
Giants starter RH Brett Tomko has 3 complete games vs. the Pirates including 1 this year on Apr. 29th. Tomko is 5-5 with a 4.60 ERA vs. the Pirates.
Giants should be able to score enough runs for Tomko tonight and give him another victory over the Pirates.
Yesterday was a good example of teams' prowess vs. lefties or righties. Angles are ranked #28 out of 30 batting avg. (.205) in the majors vs. lefties. Tigers LH Maroth stifled them yesterday. While Tigers were #9 (.284) who were using Angels LH Washburn as a batting practice pitcher.
Yankees RL -1.5 -125
Seattle is ranked #29 in batting average vs. lefties with a .204 average, only team worse is Houston as Braves LH Mike Hampton proved yesterday. Mariners only have 2 HRs and 15 RBIs vs. lefthanders this year. Yankee starter LH Johnson is 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA vs. Seattle in 1 start. Yankees have thrown back to back shutouts with Mussina and Brown in winning 2 straight games. I believe Johnson continues the strong pitching for them tonight and the Yankee bats get enough runs off RH Meche to cover the 1.5 runs.
NBA:
Pistons -8.5
Pistons should be able to handle a hobbled Pacers squad coming off an emotional game 7 win. Pistons are well rested and well coached with last year's experience as their manuel. A healthy Prince should keep Jackson quiet all night, only thing moving will be his mouth as that never shuts up. The firm of Wallace & Wallace should keep O'Neal off the boards and limit his points. The difference will be Billups and RIP at the guards as the Pacers don't match up well with either one. Defence from the big guys and points from the guards, very simple formula for the Bad Boys of Motown. Pistons should win game 1 by at least 10 points here.
Will add a play for the Mavs/Suns game later.
