The Cleveland Indians remain in the Wild Card hunt in the AL, and they can sum it up by their play in their home park, which has seen them deliver a 40-28 record on the season. They will have to earn this one against Chris Sale, who has had a big year for Chicago. Sale does not have a lot of support, however, as the bullpen behind him is leaky, and he has recorded a win in just one of his last six starts. Sale also has a losing record in his career vs. the Tribe. The White Sox have been brutalized as a road dog when facing a winning team where they are a woeful 30-72 in their last 102. Sale has not even been able to correct that, as the Sox are 2-10 as a road favorite of -110 to -150 in Sale's last 12 road starts to that odds range. Make the play on Cleveland.
