2nd Pick: Yankees/ Tigers Over 9.5 runs *** Play

New York and Detroit will fly over. In fact, the Yankees might get the total by themselves!

Jeff Weaver, who has a 7.20 ERA on the road, should get rocked in this one. And Detroit's Bernero won't fare any better as he has a 7.36 ERA in four home starts this season.

When all is said and done, the Yankees will win this one and fly over the total.

--- You might want to think about laying a run and a half with the Yanks and play over the total for a little same-game parlay winner.

BIG ***** WIN

1-1 Today. Won my ***** Play : So much for the bad weather at Detroit, could have been 2-0.

3rd Pick: Colorado/ San Francisco Over 8 1/2 ***** Pick

With Jennings facing Foppert tonight look for a high scoring game.

Jennings has been horrible on the road this year giving up 55 hits, 10 walks, and 32 runs in only 40 innings pitched.

Foppert for San Francisco has an ERA of 6.00 in his two home starts.
