Cleveland is back on track following a rough stretch in early August, and the Guardians won their fourth in a row 2-1 over the Cubs on Tuesday night, and the game easily went UNDER. Jhonkensy Noel hit a solo homer in the sixth for the winning run. Jameson Taillon gave up five runs on nine hits in five innings against the White Sox on Friday, although the Cubs pulled out a 7-6 win. The Cubs are 1-6 in Taillon's past seven starts against a team that scored two or fewer runs in its previous game, and the Guardians have won their past four interleague games as favorites of -110 to -150. Alex Cobb will make his second season start for Cleveland after being acquired from San Francisco and recovering from left hip surgery. The UNDER is 7-1 in Taillon's past eight starts versus opponents that scored two or fewer runs their previous game, and Cleveland is 6-1 UNDER in Game 3 of a series. Take the Guardians and the UNDER as a Max Play.
